Sladjana Velkov is in violation of the penal code for giving foolish medical advice to naive and ignorant citizens. This is charlatanry and it is sanctioned by law.
Answering questions from the audience, she suggested the prohibited chlorine dioxide as a treatment of autism. Chlorine dioxide is used for industrial bleaching and as a disinfectant.
Sladjana Velkov suggests using the so-called CD protocol for treating autism. It is available for sale on the Internet as a miracle cure for diseases such as malaria, AIDS, cancer, and even autism.
Although it is also available for sale in Slovenia, the Agency of the Republic of Slovenia for Medicines and Medical Devices informs that its sale is illegal. In order to avoid being held responsible, sellers sell it as a disinfectant for water.
In her lectures Velkov gave numerous statements considered extremely harmful by medical authorities. For example, in her lecture Natural Ways to Health in Naklo, she explained that she treats children with autism and that the children's main problems are parasites. She mentioned the example of an American boy who was cured completely by using the miracle drops and enema, excreting 16 kilograms of parasites.
The Macedonian Medical Association warns
Because of similar medical statements the Macedonian Medical Association issued a warning in October of the rise of charlatanry and miracle drugs in Macedonia. Despite having a medical degree, Velkova does not hold a license for practicing medicine. Not in Macedonia, and not in Serbia, where she lived for a longer period.
The president of the Macedonian Medical Association, Kočo Čakalaroski, explains that "she is very cunning, because she never assumes responsibility for her statements."
A Facebook medical doctor
With the help of administrators the alleged physician gives advice via Facebook. When parents turn to her for help, her advice is totally unprofessional. "It’s a case of child abuse," thinks Snežana Spirovska, a medical doctor by profession, who follows Velkov's work from Macedonia.
The former Macedonian Health minister and a professor at the medical faculty in Skopje, Dragan Danilovski, warns that Velkov "is in violation of the penal code for giving foolish medical advice to naive and ignorant citizens. This is charlatanry and it is sanctioned by law."
Some years ago a man was arrested in Serbia for producing and selling miracle drugs. A few days ago Serbia’s authorities have also received reports of Velkov's harmful practice.
