Poland’s parliament has passed an amendment to patient rights legislation, dubbed “Lex Szarlatan,” and its implementation now hinges on President Karol Nawrocki’s signature. The bill has sparked considerable debate, leading to intense lobbying from various groups seeking to influence the president's decision. Concerns center around who is advising President Nawrocki regarding the controversial law. Reports indicate Jerzy Zięba, a figure known for promoting unconventional medical treatments, has been present at the Presidential Palace. This raises questions about the credibility of the advice being offered and the potential impact on healthcare policy. The situation underscores the high stakes surrounding the bill and the ongoing efforts to sway the president before a final decision is made.
