Key points from article :

The French government will stop reimbursing patients for homeopathic treatment from 2021.

This is because France’s National Authority for Health concluded homeopathy had no proven benefit.

Social security paid back €126.8m (£114m) for homeopathic treatment in 2018.

In Britain, the National Health Service decided in 2017 to stop funding homeopathic care.
