Default Belgian Medics turn their back on their PM

https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/coron...cid=spartanntp

Scores of medics turned their backs on Sophie Wilmès during a hospital visit in protest at the Belgian prime minister’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Ms Wilmès made an unofficial visit at Saint-Pierre Hospital in the Marollen district of Brussels on Saturday in an attempt to relieve tensions with healthcare workers, who are unhappy with how the government is dealing with the coronavirus crisis.
In a video widely shared online, Wilmès’s official motorcade can be seen approaching the hospital. The road leading up to the hospital is lined with doctors and nurses, with each one slowly turning their backs in silent protest as Wilmès’s black Mercedes passes by.

Workers at the hospital staged the protest to call for increased acknowledgement of their efforts during the pandemic, which has so far claimed over 9,000 lives in Belgium, with a further 55,000 confirmed cases, according to official figures.
Belgium has the worst coronavirus mortality rate in the world, having recorded 66 deaths per 100,000 people.
For comparison, the mortality rate in the US is thought to be about 19 in 100,000.



although tbf they are at least counting their care home deaths which is not being done across Europe
