A recent report by the European Analytical Collective “Res Futura” reveals a stark division in Polish public opinion regarding President Karol Nawrocki’s decision to send the amended Patient Rights Act – dubbed “lex szarlatan” (anti-quackery law) – to the Constitutional Tribunal. The analysis indicates an even split, with an equal number of internet users expressing support for and criticism of the President’s move. The "lex szarlatan" aims to regulate alternative medicine practices. This referral effectively halts the implementation of the bill, sparking debate over patient rights and freedom of choice in healthcare. The findings suggest a deeply polarized national discourse surrounding the controversial legislation. The report highlights the sensitivity of the issue and its impact on the Polish public. It indicates a significant challenge for President Nawrocki in navigating this contentious issue.
