Health officials at the United Nations suppressed a report confirming that marijuana poses less of a public health threat than alcohol or tobacco, according to an article in the current issue of a leading English research journal, New Scientist . Sources leaked a draft version of the report to the magazine shortly after WHO officials decided to kill the story.
Insiders say the comparison was scientifically sound and that WHO caved in to political pressure.
The magazine said WHO researchers also found that marijuana smoke did not lead to blocked airways or emphysema or impact on lung function, and that it was less addictive than alcohol or cigarettes. New Scientist further stated that the use of marijuana did not appear to lead to the use of harder drugs. Medical marijuana distributed at the clubs will be sold at cost. But the next day we'll be open again. Presently, buyers' clubs exist in Toronto and Vancouver, the Toronto Star reported.
