In front of the Hôtel du Département, on Friday morning, the Bigorre Union Populaire collective, which supports the candidacy of Jean-Luc Mélenchon, reiterated its opposition to the single hospital project in Lanne, claiming 13,000 signatures for the cessation of this project and maintaining local hospitals in Tarbes and Lourdes. In the same logic, he denounced the “unspeakable” situation of health establishments in the Hautes-Pyrénées: “every evening, the emergencies of Bagnères are closed, those of the Ormeau clinic are definitely closed, endangering local populations and overcrowding the emergency departments of Tarbes and Lourdes Nuclear medicine at the Tarbes hospital is doomed and is practically transferred to Pau Stress cardiology scintigraphy, essential for fixing the diagnosis of coronary diseases , is sacrificed by the management of the hospital of Tarbes. The doctors of the hospital, the medical committee of establishment alerted at the end of the year the management of the hospital, the ARS, the elected officials and local parliamentarians on the loss of chances for patients in the department and therefore their endangerment”.
