– Pediatricians suffocate and hospitals cough
The outbreak has been straining the system for weeks. The professionals stick out their tongues but they want to be reassuring, like the Canton.
The testimonies are multiplying. Parents who report that their pediatrician is working double days or that he won’t take any more new patients until next summer, others who mention an interminable wait in the emergency room or even those who see the consultation or even the operation of their child postponed because it is non-urgent. Even before facing the heart of winter, the Vaud pediatric services are facing a storm of rare intensity. Five-point X-ray.
