On November 21, an oncologist in Cagnes-sur-Mer received death threats after recommending the vaccination of Covid-19 for children. He decided to file a complaint.
Doctor Jérôme Barrière is used to expressing himself regularly about the Covid-19 virus on social networks. However, after his last tweet in favor of the vaccination of children, the oncologist of Cagnes-Sur-Mer says he has received death threats on Twitter. He reported it to nice morning this Sunday, November 21.
The tweets received in response to his statement on twitter were particularly violent. But it is this threat: “Topen up to my kids and I’ll open up two big bacon for you”Which triggered Jérôme’s decision to go to the gendarmerie and file a complaint. “They will make a requisition from Twitter to obtain the user’s address. He will be summoned. The justice will decide if there is reason to initiate proceedings “, he explained to Nice Matin.
“Dangerous threats to our society”
He explains in a press release that several of his colleagues regularly face threats of this kind. He even calls them “itolerable and extremely dangerous for our society”. Jérôme Marty, president of the French Union for Free Medicine, for example had to hire a bodyguard since last September for very similar reasons. Yet the oncologist says he is only informing French citizens about the coronavirus in a free manner. “If nothing is done, then doctors will never be able to speak publicly again.” he declares.
