Medical cannabis passes 1 million prescriptions despite rampant stigma

Alternaleaf is Australia’s largest medical cannabis clinic, providing high-quality medical care to thousands of patients every week. However, in a recent survey, three-in-five reported keeping their treatment secret due to prejudice and social stigma. The survey of more that 6,000 medical cannabis patients showed that 61% were reluctant to discuss their medical treatment, with many citing concerns around perceptions of cannabis in the community.
