French Surgery Nurses On Strike

PARIS, FRANCE - MAY 25: An operating room nurses crawls across a road during a strike to protest the "contempt" shown to them in a overhaul of France's healthcare system, the "Ségur de la santé", as they call for salary increases that more fairly reflect their specialist training, outside the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health on May 25, 2021, in Paris, France. A raft of reforms worth some €8 billion were announced by Health Mister Olivier Véran last week at the conclusion of the "Ségur de la santé", following seven weeks of consultations across France's healthcare sector. This comes as the WHO announced yesterday that some 115,000 healthcare workers have died of COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic. (Photo by Sam Tarling/Getty Images)
