Two years following the facts, the war between Professor Didier Raoult and Parisian researchers continues in court: the Marseille criminal court examined Friday the complaint for defamation of the Marseille infectious disease specialist once morest his Parisian counterpart Karine Lacombe.
For Didier Raoult, present at the helm on Friday, Karine Lacombe’s attack once morest him in July 2020, at the microphone of Europe 1, is “unbearable”.
The head of the infectious diseases department at Saint-Antoine hospital in Paris, asked regarding the differences in survival rates in intensive care between Paris and Marseille, put forward by Didier Raoult, replied: “He has legal actions for lies before the parliamentary committee which are in progress”.
The infectious disease specialist was referring to the hearing of Professor Raoult by the National Assembly’s commission of inquiry into the government’s management of the coronavirus crisis.
At the end of this hearing, Martin Hirsch [alors à la tête des Hôpitaux de Paris] had “sent a letter to the National Assembly saying that I had given false testimony, but there was never a complaint”, recalled Professor Raoult on Friday.
“I consider it serious to be accused of false testimony before the National Assembly, while I respect this country,” insisted Didier Raoult at the helm, “I can be called crazy, etc., but when I heard that this false information was peddled, I said to myself that it had to be stopped”.
