Throwing Israeli drugs in the bin

Doctors in Italy are facing backlash after a video showed Dr. Rita Segantini and nurse Giulia Checcacci tossing Teva Pharmaceuticals products in protest against Israel. The footage, shared on social media, ignited outrage as anti-Israel sentiment rises in the country.
The two later apologized, saying it was “a symbolic gesture for peace” and that no actual medicine was discarded. Segantini clarified that the items—free samples like wet wipes and supplements—were immediately removed and that the video was filmed outside working hours.
Both work at a community hospital in Tuscany, and their actions drew criticism online and from lawmakers, including Deborah Bergamini of Forza Italia, who called it “ideological activism” and urged disciplinary measures. The Southeast Tuscany Health Authority launched an internal inquiry to protect the hospital’s reputation and staff professionalism.
Teva, founded in Israel, produces life-saving drugs worldwide, including in Italy. Observers said the video highlighted a concerning misuse of medical authority, even if the act was symbolic.
