The NZ Medical Association recently made public that they do not support a 'yes' vote on the upcoming cannabis referendum. Many members of the NZMA were not happy with their public statement in fact, one doctor, Dr Nina Sawicki, said she has quit the Medical Association because of its stance.
She said the NZMA is not representative of the entire medical workforce in this country, and that many doctors have opposing views.
Since their original statement the NZMA have walked back their position slightly, but we're hoping Dr Sawicki can bring further light to this conversation.
