Humans should have every Right To Heal Themselves in any way deems necessary for survival. Countless Cases of people have prooven to heal themselves already and the proof is abundant Anywhere Online. If a treatment by government rule is not working and people find another way to heal themselves this should be encouraged and NOT outlawed. If any Cure is found and deemed safe to use i. e. Cannabis Oil for Example, then Human Rights should allow for self administration and not Criminalised.
