AVMC: Cats and Pigeons
Earlier this week, we advised followers on our Facebook page that a 32-page white paper titled “The Case Against Homeopathy” was debated by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). As one vet stated:
“What’s really frustrating is this supposedly unbiased white paper is full of biased information, is authored by a person who apparently didn’t feel comfortable putting his name to it, and who did not consult with a single veterinary homeopath or other expert in homeopathy for the purpose of presenting a balanced approach to the topic.”
With the cat well and truly amongst the pigeons, people forwarded their protests. It was encouraging to see the AVMA adopt a much more moderate approach to this paper than what was first anticipated, but its progress still bears watching.
