Healer - Do No Harm, Try Not To Kill The Patient

[wolf63]

This guy is dangerous.  Many people look for alternative treatments for chronic diseases.  Some treatments help and some have no more than a placebo effect.  

This healer took things a little too far.  It is easy to say that the woman should have had more sense than to believe him, but she believed in him.

He needs locking up to protect the gullible.

With his conviction in Australia how did he manage to get into the UK?

Rocky - agreed.  Type 1 is not curable, or isn't in 2024, the guy has no medical background and is a danger to the desperate and gullible.

Sandy - good point.  He couldn't have lied to immigration or border control - could he?!

Why on earth do people fall for these obviously ridiculous scams.

I've always been astonished how some people swear by homeopathy...or water as sane people call it.
