[H] Did homeopathy kill Steve Jobs, founder of Apple

Edzard Ernst is an inveterate opponent of homeopathy, and has been for many years. He is well-known and despised in the UK! His university chair at Exeter is funded by Big Pharma companies. Calling the chair 'Complementary Medicine' was a stroke of genius! As in these articles, he is described as an 'expert'. He has no qualification in homeopathy.

Obviously interesting claims for him to make, and it would seem he has more information about Jobs than you (us) - or he thinks he has.

Conventional Medicine (ConMed) kills people directly through taking Big Pharma drugs. ConMed is now the biggest single killer in USA, and probably elsewhere.

Jobs wasn't 'killed' by any homeopathic treatment. If he delayed ConMed treatment, Ernst's argument is that this treatment is so good, so life-saving, so safe (et al) that the delay (caused by homeopathy) killed him. In other words, Job should not have the right to choose how he was treated, and that he should not have been allowed to delay ConMed treatment.

But let us not even assume it was homeopathy! Who did he see, or consult with? Did he do so by choice? Did he get good advice? Was he properly informed about his choices, and options?

This is just another attack on homeopathy, and one that we can expect to be used ad nauseam for the next few years.
