Homeopathic A & E

I came across this clip from the British sketch comedy show That Mitchell and Webb Look on the Science-Based Medicine blog. In the U.K., A&E stands for the "Accident and Emergency" ward of a hospital, what Americans would refer to as the E.R. If you're aware of the reverse logic of homeopathy and homeopathic "remedies", you'll find it hilarious. If not, you may learn a thing or two about how implausible and even dangerous it can be.



If you're unfamiliar with the concept of homeopathy, here is a good primer. It's part of a lecture by famous skeptic and magician, James Randi.
