Homeopathy has a two hundred year track record of curing illness. It first came to widespread public
attention through its effectiveness in curing epidemics of cholera in the 19th century. During the great
influenza epidemic after World War I, homeopathic hospitals reported very low death rates, while
hospitals employing conventional medicine reported death rates of 20% to 30%. Since World War II, the
double blind clinical trial has become the "gold standard" for determining the effectiveness of medical
treatment. A number of double blind trials have been done on the use of homeopathy on a number of medical
conditions. Although not every study has shown a positive outcome, the majority of studies have shown
that homeopathy is effective.
