**When you were asked during the debate a question from the public regarding the placebo effect, "If homeopathic substances are purely psychological placebos, do you think the evidence that they can work in animals and plants has any weight?," you discussed the case of pets. It is well known that the placebo effect in animals is negligible, but you explained that perception can be biased in a pet’s owner. Now, please explain the role of the placebo effect in the numerous, measurable results obtained experimentally and clinically with homeopathy on measurable aspects, in: in vitro experimentations, experimentations with plants, farm animals (where the owner’s perception does not play a role, such as infertility, stillbirth, weight gain or helmintiasis), infants (again regarding measurable changes in the infants as opposed to qualitative changes), the unconscious persons, and the insane persons?** | **When you were asked during the debate a question from the public regarding the placebo effect, "If homeopathic substances are purely psychological placebos, do you think the evidence that they can work in animals and plants has any weight?," you discussed the case of pets.
