the cry of alarm of a nurse called a “Nazi” on the walls of her medical office
During the night of Monday to Tuesday, a medical office near Toulouse was tagged. Insults and references to Nazi leaders for having vaccinated against Covid-19. A complaint will be filed. A nurse issued a cry of alarm in a letter.
During the night of Monday to Tuesday, one or more people tagged a private practice in the suburbs of Toulouse. On these tags, we can read “Neither forgiveness, nor forgetfulness, nor excuse” or even “The vaccine kills, no ethics, no Nurenberg ethics”. Written exactly like that.
The insults are aimed at a nursing practice, against those who practice vaccination against Covid-19.
“One of the liberal nurses was shocked. Just like the other health professionals in this medical office. It’s a gross injustice”, explains Toulouse doctor and novelist Baptiste Beaulieu.
For this nurse, the comparison with the leaders of Nazi Germany was too far, she translated a letter which was relayed on France Inter on January 26 to express her feelings:
I am a home nurse near Toulouse, here is my practice today. I am heartbroken and disgusted. I’ve had enough of going through this for two years, at the first wave we were insulted at night on our answering machine, telling us that it was us who were killing people by carrying around the virus. Today we are called Nazis.
She then explains that she has been treating for 23 years, without judgement, without discrimination. “I treat everyone regardless of their origins, their religion or their skin color, their age. One day they won’t have doctors at all, like you, or nurses like me, because I’m thinking of going to sell carrots on their market or anything else, because you can’t do stuff like that” , she continues in her letter.
We just want to work without being called a Nazi, you can’t know how it hurts and scares me to live in a world like that. We decided to file a complaint. Be careful.
The Toulouse doctor who relayed this letter and joined by telephone also said he was very shocked by such acts. “Not only are the health professions difficult professions with little recognition, if in addition we are compared to Nazi leaders, it is an injustice squared. We are being walked on our heads!”, explains Doctor Baptiste Beaulieu.
I trust my baker to make me good bread, my shoemaker to repair my shoes, so we have to trust scientists for Science. Everyone has their own area of expertise and skills. What shocks me is that we are using a health crisis to circularize far-right ideas. Some people instrumentalize people’s fear for their political agenda.

This nurse and these health professional colleagues therefore decided to file a complaint with a police station near Toulouse. For security reasons, they prefer to remain anonymous.
