Health care




Public health
Friland is a welfare state that strives for help and facilities for everybody. There are also obligatory basic insurances.
        To keep the population as healthy as possible there are vaccinations, periodic medical examinations and campaigns aimed against smoking, drugs, bad nutrition and excessive alcohol consumption. Commercials for tobacco, alcohol and other unhealthy products are forbidden. Everyone also has the right to get the best medicines, no matter the costs. Society as a whole contributes to this.

Ethics
In Friland the wellbeing of people is deemed higher than ethical objections; cloning and genetic manipulation are therefore allowed for scientific research, as long as it benefits people's wellbeing. Abortion and euthanasia are also allowed.

Alternative medicine
Certain types of alternative medicine are compensated by the insurance. Not only acupuncture, reiki and Tai chi have many supporters, but also the treatments that originate from the Ferna Sed religion. However, regular medicine is the most common because the average Frilander strongly believes in everything that can be scientifically demonstrated.
