After some deliberations, on February 14 the French government and National Assembly managed to pass a bill that includes an Article 4 that essentially creates a new crime of “provocation to abstention from medical care.”
It reads as follows:
Art. 223-1-2 . – Provocation to abandon or abstain from following therapeutic or prophylactic medical treatment is punishable by one year of imprisonment and a fine of 15,000 euros, when this abandonment or abstention is presented as beneficial for the health of the persons targeted when it is, in the state of medical knowledge

The bill now awaits final approval in the French Senate

I'm sure France must have signed that Nuremberg pact. All nations that signed it agreed to never again force anyone to undergo any medical procedure they did not agree to. The Nazi's had a fondness for experimenting on the Jews, with or without anesthesia. How quickly they forget.

What the OP said. As well as #1.
Most likely this is because people declined to risk taking the Covid Death Jab. Whatever happened to "My Body, My CHOICE!"?

So one could go to prison in France for expressing doubts about "gender affirming care?"

A foreshadowing of things to come in the US if we continue to "elect" leftists.

In France medical knowledge now belongs to the state. It is what they say it is.

Since Medicine is an art, drawing a line on a dangerous experimental procedure must be exempted from this totalitarian bill is needed. The Covid shot is an example of forced compliance to a dangerous procedure has caused irreparable harm and the governments who forced this on people need to be sued and the officials enforcing same jailed.

France? Isn't that the country that betrayed its citizens by allowing an unrestricted invasion of third world barbarians who are destroying the culture that took them in?
Oh. Never mind. Thats us.

Leeching and bloodletting isn't dead in France. Nor are government approved witch's brews and incantations. You can't refuse.

Rejecting "medical knowledge"? Really? How about bloodletting, trephanation, lobotomy, mercury as medicine, radium water. Those were all medical knowledge that was widespread back in the day. I have a feeling it won't be too long before "gender affirming care" joins those old practices as former medical knowledge that violated the Hippocratic Oath in the worst way.

I G N O R E France, it is a useless POS! As I said numerous times...The very last quality human being from France was Lafayette! Eisenhower knew full well DeGaulle would sell out the Allies to Hitler, so he forbade anyone from informing him of the "D" Day plan until the day before the invasion!

Apparently being choked off by tractors and the impending year of starvation is not scary enough for the French. Do you people still remember how to build guillotines? You're going to need them soon.

So...pretty much like the U.S. during COVID. Forced masking, losing jobs for not vaccinating, certain medications not being allowed, etc., etc. We went "full France" for almost 2 years. We have no right to ridicule France now. We ARE France now. Still not willing to confront and reject a fascist, idiotic government that keeps imposing absurd laws and policies (EVs, gender-affirming care, BLM supremacy, green BS, the list is endless.)

#7, believe it or not, they still do. Leeches are excellent for promoting localized blood flow and removing necrotic tissue. Bloodletting is also still used but is called therapeutic phlebotomy. But I get your point.

Leftist humanists are turning "science" into their weapon for mass censorship, which is on its face ridiculous, considering how often "science" has been horribly wrong throughout the ages. The list would violate Lucianne's posting limit.

so you can't speak up against vaccines, or gender transition, or euthanasia, or abortion, or psychological treatments as punishments for wrongthink? The health sector has gone crazy with power seeking.

First, it's we will tell you what you can or can't do with your body as France is doing now. We are fast approaching 666 where you can't buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast that's either on your hand or on your forehead. If we don't fight back with Civil disobedience, we will be there in the Book of Revelation.

In Canada euthanasia for the chronically ill is considered "health care". Yet, the medical establishment targets the young healthy bodies of adolescents for their hellish experiments in "gender-affirming" disfigurement surgeries ensuring life-long victims for Big Pharma. Yet surgical advances have save hundreds of thousands of lives. In some cases the medical establishment will spare no expense to save a life, and in others will spare no expense to end lives. Our society has become schizophrenic when it comes to health care, and have elevated the medical profession to "believe in the science" to levels of faith that reach the realm of being religious because society has abandoned God. Mankind now believes we can control life and death. Woe be unto us!

I am so sorry that the US ever invested precious lives and money into saving the French. They did not deserve it (either time) back then and do not deservie it now. Let them perish.

These are the people who built the Maginot Line to keep them safe from Germany. Of course Hitler just went around it.

Your body is no longer yours to decide on what "medical care" you get. And docs cannot disagree with the government version of "medical knowledge"....which will be handed down from the WEF controlled WHO. Beware ANYTHING from any organization that has "World" in the title.
