Romania is one of the EU countries, and 10th EU country that authorized medical marijuana use. Marijuana is medically proved that it relieves pain and reduce seizures. Based on these pharmacological effects marijuana is used for certain diseases such as epilepsy, cancer, and multiple sclerosis, and it is been tested on other diseases such as Parkinson and Alzheimer’s.
ReplyDeleteI think my country,Korea, doesn't allow marijuana for medical reason. Actually, I am not sure about that since I don't know about medical issue. However, marijuana is illegal in Korea, so it might not allow marijuana in Korea even for medical reason. If it is a real benefit, I think allowing marijuana can be necessary, but people should be careful not to use marijuana for other purpose, especially for recreational purpose.
ReplyDeleteIf it is used in a bad way, people would be dangerous with the risk of marijuana.
After I have read this article I have no doubt that Romania made a right decision. Romania is not the first country who is using marijuana to treat diseases such as epilepsy, cancer and multiple sclerosis. I guess that other nine countries in the European Union have great results from using marijuana as a treatment from some illnesses. People from these countries now have a great opportunity to be treated and healed from many diseases. Indeed, it does not matter what kind of medicine they will get, the most important are results and benefits such as saving people’s lives and happiness.
ReplyDeleteThis is Pedro. In my country marijuana is still not legalized. In my opinion, there are some bad and good effects about the legalization of it. The first bad one is that more people will have access to marijuana, many of those people that don't really need it. Also, the use of marijuana will become a normal habit among people, and this might not be good. One of the good effects is that people that need marijuana for treating illnesses will have more facility to get it. In addition, with the legalization of marijuana, the drugs traffic will considerately decrease. In sum, there are many bad and good effects of legalizing marijuana.
ReplyDeleteIn Colombia Marijuana has been decriminalized for possession of small amounts up to 22 grams for personal consumption however sale and cultivation is illegal. This article analizes the advantages of marijuana as medicine. Nowadays marijuana helps to deal with pain caused by cancer, epilepsy and sclerosis. It is known that some indian tribes use marijuana for medical effects. On the other hand, Marijuana is a illegal business around the world.
ReplyDeleteChina is a very strict country, and I don't think it allow medical marijuana. For legalizing marijuana, I think it is a good thing for medical use. Marijuana is a drug that people easy to be addicted to, but, it is not as harmful as other drugs, such as heroin, meanwhile, if people can get marijuana legally, they will not commit crime for getting it. However, legalizing marijuana may also cause more people to try it and addict to it, which is the negative side.

ReplyDeleteUzbekistan doesn't allow marijuana, moreover, individual could be put in prison for 10 years if he/she would be catch with marijuana on him/her.
I see only bad effects in legalizing marijuana. It can easily fall out of the government control. If we want to legalize the marijuana production, distribution, and selling, we have to be ready for more issues than we even can think of. Some people would look for any chance to buy this product, so doctors who would be able to give prescription would be followed. There is also a possibility that doctors could make out of it a good business as well. To legalize marijuana is not good idea at all. The percentage of people who would like to take advantage of it is much bigger than the percentage of people who would really use the prescription for their own sake.
Colombia does allow marijuana but as a personal dosis. It is only 22 gr. However,in the medical field it is not legal to use it, neither to consume more than the personal dosis allowed by the country. One of the benefits of allowing marijuana to be consumed is that the "taboo" is going to end. It is going to be the same story like the alcohol or the cigarette. It is going to be so common that it's not going to occacionate violance. I mean, poeple is not going to "kill" for it anymore. On the other hand, legalizing it means to allow people harm and kill themselves with this drug. Also, more people is going to cultivate it freely and so, there is going to be marijuana everywhere. It's also a bad environment for our children to grow up in.
ReplyDeleteIn colombia the marijuana is legal. Year ago the gonvernment legalized it. There are many issus righ now becuase of this desicion. When i was in my mission, i went to a lot of places were i could see what this drug do in the life of the people. this drug destroys families, reputation, trust, lives. It is pretty sad to see how people ruin their lifes for the bad desicions of the governement.
ReplyDeleteMexico doesnt allow the use of marijuana; however, it is very common. The good thing about legalizing in Mexico could results in less problems with drug dealers. A bad thing will be that it will be more at the reach of more people including children.
ReplyDeleteIn my country, Brazil, marijuana is ilegal. In my opinion the good effects to legalize marijuana is that people would use it more consciously becauce I think teenager just use it to take risks and be irresponsible. On the other hand, illnesses and unhealth would increase. One more good point is that marijuana legally would be used as a medication.
