Not enough nurses and medics in the hospital? Not so serious since now the hospital is accompanied by consultants who are highly paid to provide their recommendations. Which are sometimes jargonous copy and paste. Long live the modernization of the State.
The unspeakable slowness of the vaccination process in France is making people happy: those who hate the state. What are the precise reasons for the French failure? First, the fear of acting, for the sake of covering up rather than having to risk legal action in the event of a bad decision. Then the sovereign contempt for logistics, “stewardship will follow”, eh. Finally, ignorance – voluntary? – the economic, social and even health costs of the pandemic, which makes it impossible to operate up to the problem. Etc.
So the problem is not the excess of officials, or their laziness. It is because the state is paralyzed. He would like to act, but can no longer, or almost no longer. The causes are known: generalized disempowerment, multiple bureaucracies, lack of sanctions for defaulting officials. In short, everyone covers up, but, in the end, if the “agency directors” and other “presidents” of various and varied organizations are warm for the winter, the virus itself continues to wander. in our fragile little lungs.

So what is the state doing? It appeals to the private sector. More precisely to consulting firms, highly remunerated. At the University of Lyon alone, a project, ultimately aborted, cost… 1.5 million euros in “ consulting“. Also in the capital of Gaul, the civil hospices spent, from 2015 to 2017, more than 2 million euros on audits with three large private firms: McKinsey, Capgemini and KPMG.
And with whom did the state develop the disastrous vaccination campaign? McKinsey, of course! The box “Is attached to the vaccination task force of the Ministry of Health. […] But it is not they who develop the strategy alone ” , do we want to clarify Avenue de Ségur. Phew!
The State therefore enriches morons in the private sector, often very young, much less trained than the doctors to whom they tell how to work, but paid double. Obviously, it is impossible to know how much it comes to us brave taxpayers. The thing is so scandalous that, in 2018, the Court of Auditors punched his fist on its mahogany table: “The consultants’ productions only rarely give results that match the expected services. Many mission reports mainly use internal data, simply copy known information or repeat existing notes or conclusions. “In short: the guys and girls in the consultancy cost 10,000 euros per month to copy and paste.
Well, in a pinch, it might be better that way, because when they make real recommendations… The thing has become commonplace. The world, in an article explained that, of course, Covid or not Covid, the bed cuts continue – ah damn! You do not know ? And also to specify that, during meetings with angry caregivers, the regional health agency Grand-Est is “Always accompanied by the Capgemini consulting firm”. So it goes without saying. At least we know who benefits from the destruction of public services. •
