Anyone with half of a brain and one eye can see this was a ‘set up’! – KTL
An alternative medicine conference has ended in chaos in Germany
after dozens of delegates took a LSD-like drug and started suffering
from hallucinations. Broadcaster NDR described the 29 men and women “staggering around, rolling in a meadow, talking gibberish and suffering severe cramps”. ~ Lizzie Dearden
The
group of “Heilpraktikers” was discovered at the hotel where they held
their conference in the town of Handeloh, south of Hamburg, on Friday.

More than 150 medical staff, ambulances and police descended on the scene and took the raving delegates to hospital.
The
patients, aged between 24 and 56, were found suffering from delusions,
breathing problems, racing hearts and cramps, with some in a serious
condition, Deutsche Welle reported.
Tests
on their blood and urine revealed they had all taken hallucinogenic
drug 2C-E, which is known as Aquarust in Germany and has been illegal
there since the end of last year.

No one recovered sufficiently to be interviewed by police until Monday, a spokesperson said.
Torsten
Passie, a member of the German government’s expert commission for
narcotics, told NDR: “It must have been a multiple overdose. That does
not support the view that the people concerned took the hallucinogen
knowingly.
“One has to assume that people were not told about the substance, its effects and risks before taking it.”
Police
are reportedly looking into possibilities including the drug being
taken as a joint experiment, or it being furtively given to conference
participants as a prank.
No arrests have yet been made as the investigation continues into a possible violation of Germany’s Narcotics Act.
The Association of German Healing Practitioners (VDH), which
represents homeopaths as well as other naturopaths, quickly distanced
itself from the embarrassment.
In a statement, it said none of its representatives took hallucinogens during the “incident” in Handeloh.
“The
organisers of this obscure conference are unknown to us and such events
will not be tolerated by our Association,” a spokesperson said.
“Unfortunately,
the conference in Handeloh has severely damaged the image of the
alternative medicine profession…and we have clarified that such acts are
not in the spirit of natural therapy, and contradict our values both
morally and legally.
“The Association of German Healing Practitioners (Heilpraktikers) detests such misdemeanours.”
The British Government’s drug advisory service, Frank, describes 2C-E
as a psychedelic and hallucinogenic stimulant that has effects
“somewhere between ecstasy and LSD”.
Anyone taking it experiences a buzz and feeling of being “alive and in tune with their surroundings”, their colours and smells.
It
can also cause hallucinations, sexual arousal, hypersensitivity and
other effects that become “more intense and uncontrollable” with higher
doses.
The drug is classed as relatively new by Frank and not
widely available in the UK, but is illegal as part of the phenethylamine
family as a class A drug.
