Cash Investigation was the scene of a new cult sequence, this January 13, during a report devoted to medical deserts. We see Elise Lucet running after Olivier Véran to request an interview … which she will not get.
A bad day at work for Olivier Véran. The Minister of Health has not escaped the wave of contamination which is sweeping over France.

A report which, even before the unfolding of its truths, created a lot of turmoil. true to herself, Elise Lucet went to the field to collect a reaction from Olivier Véran on the issue of the hundreds of clinics and hospitals that operate cancers each year in France without any authorization from the State. But only obtained, by way of response, an end of inadmissibility. However, she had put the forms in it, as commented on the small voice of the investigation and its catchy “We put the Elise turbo”.

A situation that Elise Lucet regrets, who returned to this lack of response at the microphone of Europe 1. “I find that asking a journalist and a program manager to go live when there is no live, it’s not playable and it would entail enormous expense to do so, which not possible”she said. What to lose breath…
