Homeopathy facing criticism in France

A debate is raging in France about whether homeopathy is really effective. The country's high authority of health is due to issue a long-awaited opinion in the spring on the appropriateness of reimbursing this form of alternative medicine, which has been described as "fake" by some practitioners. But French homeopathic giant Boiron says it would be a false economy if the state decides to stop reimbursing patients for such treatments.
