AFPPIX: Switzerland, which pioneered prescription heroin and safe injection sites decades ago, is now experimenting with decriminalising recreational cannabis, with the drug now available in some Basel pharmacies.

In Basel, participants are aged 18 to 76, and the aim is to study “the effects of regulated cannabis sale... on mental health and on consumption behaviour,“ Marc Walter, a psychiatry professor at the University of Basel and head of the study, told AFP.
