“French Doctors” is a very well-known concept that has travelled beyond borders for many years now. This concept recounts the French-style humanitarian field action facing distressed population affected by civil wars, natural disasters, outbreaks, migration flows…. France is specialized in rapid medical action in emergency and disaster situations. In addition to emergency medicine, the concept of “disaster medicine” rapidly became clear in order to deal, in France and abroad, not only with natural disasters but also with large-scale accidents and threats. Many teams were dispatched to Sri Lanka, Mexico, Dakar, Central America, Pakistan, and Hanoi. “Disaster medicine” has recently gained much expertise in response to the uncommon health events which have a long-term impact on healthcare services. COVID-19 pandemic is a good example.
