In terms of health, is the situation catastrophic? “No, it’s not catastrophic.” For Marc Chappuis, prefect of Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, the debate has crystallized on the closures of the emergencies of Manosque, but it is “reductive compared to the dynamic which is underway: ARS, health professionals, communities invent innovative solutions.

We must rely on unscheduled care centers
