Bruno Piriou chose transparency and he sticks to it.
Victim of a heart attack on the night of March 2 to 3, the mayor (DVG) of Corbeil-Essonnes gives his news in a video published on social networks Friday March 8.
The elected official announced the end of his hospitalization at the Sud Ile-de-France Hospital Center (CHSF), the structure where he was cared for and located in his commune.
Despite a tired and slightly thin face, he seems in good shape.

“You understand, I had a serious attack and a heart problem this week,” informs Bruno Piriou.
I am leaving the hospital, I have a fairly exceptional follow-up protocol.
I have cardiac rehabilitation which will last a month part-time.
In the first few days I will stop everything, but I will gradually resume my activity as mayor which fascinates me.
I also wanted to take this opportunity to thank the hundreds and hundreds of messages received, it did me a lot of good.

On March 5, he publicly expressed his health concerns in a press release published on the Corbeil-Essonnes website.
In his video leaving hospital, he thanks Michel Nouaille, his first deputy, who replaces him at town hall.
“Thank you also to the entire municipal team, my office and the opposition elected officials who showed me their support,” greets Bruno Piriou.
“I thank the improbable and exceptional staff”
The elected official also pays tribute to the CHSF teams.
“I thank the improbable and exceptional staff, whether they are doctors, nurses or even floor technicians,” continues Bruno Piriou.
Realize, 3,800 agents work here.
I want to particularly salute the fifty people attached to the cardiology intensive care unit since they were the ones who took care of me.
It started with the Samu doctors, then the firefighters and the municipal police who were at my house last Saturday night.
I thank all these leaders, they deserve a lot.

Bruno Piriou announces having undergone “two important interventions” and says he is impressed by the “incredible techniques” of medicine in France.
He concludes with a political plea for public service.
“What makes this hospital and all hospitals in France so rich is the generosity of the women, and men too, but mainly women, who work in public hospitals.
I told myself all week what strength, what solidarity between them despite their difficult conditions.
All these people deserve better than an economy of control, salaries that are not up to par... We must take the time to think about what public service should be, we must reinvent together a new system of values to live together.
