A protest against the shortage of coronavirus protective equipment across the world has seen French and German doctors stripping off for the camera.
The health workers' nude pictures, with carefully positioned props like books and flowers to conceal their private parts, appear on a website urging politicians to ensure doctors and clinics have enough protective gear. "I learned how to stitch wounds, why do I now have to learn how to stitch masks?" reads a placard held by a female doctor with a stethoscope and a red mask in one photo.
Germany has just over 156,000 confirmed cases and an official death toll of around 6,000. It has withstood the pandemic much better than the United States, Italy, Spain and France.
