Today in our podcast, the new daily appointment of Why Doctor: Professors Harousseau, former president of the HAS, and Bergmann confront their positions in the controversy of chloroquine which Jean-Luc Harousseau wishes it can be immediately prescribed. And the point on all the news of the day.
Scientific news, with Dr Jean-Paul Marre:
– The “Boussignac system”, a non-invasive ventilation technique that could relieve intensive care units by saving respirators and personnel.
– Will the SARS-CoV-2 virus disappear with spring? It was thought that this virus could be sensitive to a rise in temperature. But its spread in hot regions shows that the arrival of fine weather alone will not solve the epidemic.
The news of the day, with Thierry Borsa:
– Professor Didier Raoult, an extraordinary figure at the heart of the debate on the management of Covid-19
Today’s guests:
– Professors Jean-Luc Harousseau and Jean-François Bergmann oppose on chloroquine:
The first, former president of the HAS, in favor of the use of chloroquine in the hospital almost calls for disobedience of prescription and endorses the approach of Professor Didier Raoult.
The second remains in favor of a medicine based on scientific evidence validated by trials in good and due form.
– Professor Bruno Falissard who participated in the drafting of advice for parents to take care of children during the period of confinement and who recommends: informing and explaining, reassuring, reminding the importance of others, organizing and punctuating daily life, maintain benchmarks and requirements, use screens in moderation and banish exposure to anxiety-provoking news.
