“We are your [doctors]. To be able to treat you safely, we need protective gear. When we run out of the little we have, we look like this,” the organizers said in an English statement on the website, whose name translates to “Naked Qualms,” according to The Guardian.
“We are all vulnerable. Medical practices need more support from politics,” the group added.
In France, dentists launched a similar project, artfully posing naked with the hashtag #dentisteapoil — or naked dentist — to alert the government about their work conditions in light of the partial lifting of lockdowns.
