67% of Swiss citizens (!) just voted to include alternative medicine in
their government's insurance health plans. They even wrote this demand for
coverage into their constitution!

Wow Dana thanks for the info,

That's amazing given that Shang - author of the infamous Lancet meta-anlysis - was also one of the group that provided the (also highly criticized) meta-analysis for the Swiss Programme Evaluation Komplementarmedizin - that got homeopathy removed from Swiss Health insurance back in about 2003 !!!

Tiny signs that the tide is turning. What next a retraction by the Lancet!? :)
