Please sign this petition to help doctors in France who are being harassed by the authorities for treating patients with the recommended treatments from ILADS. It seems most national medical associations feel threatened by these doctors who actually care about their patients and work outside the restrictive protocols of the mainstream. They need our support.

Thanks, from the look of it its an older petition but it doesn't do any harm to let them know we're watching them and supporting these doctors.
