here, news on that quite fake pharmacy:
001. Henry Samuel reports at telegraph.co.uk in "France to Stop Refunding Homeopathy, Deemed a ‘Placebo'" (2019-07-10)]:
"France’s state health system will cease reimbursing homeopathic treatment from 2021, the government has announced, in a bombshell to the alternative medicine industry [...]";
I thought I'd never live to see it, really. It seemed so entrenched.
"the decision followed a damning report on homeopathy by the national health authority published in June, which concluded that there was not enough hard proof homeopathy worked [...] France’s National Authority for Health (HAS) baldy stated in an
explosive report that homeopathy had 'not scientifically demonstrated
sufficient effectiveness to justify a reimbursement' [...]";
excellent to have rigorous standards, rigorous comparisons.
"Agnes Buzyn, health minister and a highly respected former doctor herself, said French social security reimbursement to patients for homeopathic products, which currently stand at 30 per cent - will be cut to 15 per cent in 2020 and then to phased out to zero in 2021 [...stating] the state could no longer pay for 'placebos' [...]";
ah, so they're slowly diluting the funding. Germany may be next!
