president klaus of the czech rep has just signed a bill giving the residents of that nation legal right to cannabis!!!!
Under the bill, marijuana will be legally available only on an e-prescription issued by a medical doctor still this year.
Patients will have to buy marijuana in pharmacies only.
According to the law authors, a monthly therapy would cost up to 1500 crowns.
However, critics of the legislation point out that the price might amount to 10,000 crowns, while marijuana could still be bought illegally for a much lower price.
Health insurers have so far refused to cover the marijuana treatment from public health insurance.
Health Minister Leos Heger (TOP 09) says health insurance companiescannot contribute to it since marijuana is qualified only as a supportive medical product under the law.
Marijuana can be used, for example, to mitigate the symptoms of cancer,multiple sclerosis, the Parkinson disease and atopic eczemas.
