ABSTRACT
Already a Minister of Health has been the one to decide not to include osteopathy and faith-healing in the state medical service. From the doctor’s point of view this is exactly as bad as if he had decided the other way. That such decisions should rest with whomever the parliamentary majority happens to give charge of […] health […], is a depressing thought. […] A body of people, untrained in scientific method but elected because of the complexion of their political views, had finally destroyed a good thing out of ignorance.1
