Maurice Thorez praises the decisive intervention of comrade Pierre Frumensan in the battle that unites them: "C'est une dure bataille mais les résultats en sont déjà sensibles dans tous les domaines." ("It is a hard battle but the results are already noticeable in all areas.") and also rejoices in his better health: "Vous voyez que j'écris désormais de la main gauche. C'est plus que je ne l'avais espéré un certain temps ! " ("You see that I now write with my left hand. This is more than I had hoped for some time!")
On January 23, 1953, Pierre frumusan signed with nine other communist physicians: Yves Cachin, Jean Dalsace, Hector Descomps, Henri Chrétien dit Baussary, Paul Hertzog, H.F. Klotz, Victor Lafitte, Raymond Leibovici and Jeanne Lévy, a declaration against "A group of terrorist physicians" who had just "been discovered in the Soviet Union. [...] They have been unmasked as American intelligence agents; some of them had been recruited through the Joint, an international Zionist organization." This text appeared on January 27 in l'Humanité.
On March 6, 1953, l'Humanité announced "Stalin is dead," then on April 6, 1953, on page one "The accused physicians were arrested wrongly. They are fully rehabilitated. Prosecution against those responsible for irregularities in the investigation."
Pierre Frumusan was also one of the 5 physicians who treated Maurice Thorez.
