They are on break
So far mumbo jumbo from Fisher as well as Goldacre
Nothing clear for the audience
And Fisher just said placebo affect works for children and infants as they
want to please their parents and same for pets
How wonderful that he represents us.

good comment from someone in audience - homeopath we know? That there
needs to be clarification regarding the difference between a potentized
substance used any which way and the use of that substance homeopathically
according to the symptoms. Not any response to that but glad she made that
point

Hello all -

Does Homeopathy work?
Homeopathy is a popular complementary medicine, but is there any scientific
evidence that it works?
THURSDAY 30 Nov 2006, 19:00 London time (which is 7pm or on US East Coast
that is 2 pm; US West Coast 11 am and you can figure out the rest)

30 November 2006, 19.00 hours United Kingdom

As homeopathy becomes increasingly popular, with an estimated 400,000
users, several questions remain unanswered. Is there any evidence it
works? Reviews of clinical trials fail to provide convincing
evidence, yet it is available on the NHS. Should it be? Homeopathic
products can legally claim to cure ailments, is this right when their
effectiveness is still contested by many scientists?

Join us to debate the evidence on both sides with Dr Peter Fisher,
Clinical Director of the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital and Dr Ben
Goldacre, medical writer and broadcaster, and decide for yourself.

This event is now sold out, but you can still watch and participate
live online on the Nature Live website

In many diseases it seems that "placebos" only work in homeopathy....So
when do we homeopaths start holding classes for the medical profession
in how to get results with placebo?

After all that would at least remove a few hundred thousand deaths
per year that are admitted due to drug reactions and/or nosocomial
infections, not to mention 6 million or so reported "severe reactions to
drugs" in USA annually?

Namaste,
Irene
