Although this week is Homeopathy Awareness Week, Edzard Ernst at The Guardian finds the medical practice more threatened than ever as scientific establishments attack its medicinal claims. “Last month, the British Medical Association described homeopathy as ‘witchcraft’ and called for an end to all funding on the NHS.
