Fw: The Worst of Medicine
Hello All,
The message below, as you can see, is from Paula Ross. Please support it, thanks, Grace
It would be great if we could
all go to the http://www.spiked- online.com/ index.php? /wellcome/ site and vote for
something OTHER THAN Homeopathy as the Worst of Medicine. This will then dilute
the focus on Homeopathy. I personally have voted for Vaccination as the Worst.
"Homeopathy narrowly lost out last night to vaccination as the 'Best of
Medicine' - not that, from where I was sitting, the apparently independent
chair actually counted the votes - there was a show of hands/cards and I
have to say that homeopathy looked like the winner. But hey, maybe that was
just me.
So - it lost out as the best of medicine but we fully expect to see it voted
as the 'Worst' in time for the debate on 17 July. In fact, I deliberately
sat at the back of the room, amongst some SAS members (M Fitzpatrick et al),
to hear what they were up to and this is what they're planning to do.
So - please could you vote for anything other than homeopathy on the webpage
- that way, homeopathy might not get shortlisted. If it does get
shortlisted, it will no doubt be a SAS spokesperson lining up to pull it
apart and that won't look great in the press...

No wonder they didn't want it to win last night...
PS - you can still book tickets - so please turn up to defend homeopathy.
