Dr. Essam Mohamed Morshed, an expert in oncology, radiotherapy for adults and cancer control, tweeted via his personal account on “Twitter” saying (I spent today half of the time the clinic explaining and reiterating the CT scan and tincture even though this is not within my medical specialty after I was surprised by a near refusal A group of patients worked after seeing one of their tweets, may God forgive him, and I hope that he will not bear the guilt of any patient who refuses and offers his treatment to failure).
The tweet was well received by many of Dr. Essam Morshed''''''''s followers, but it was met with opposition and rejection by others, also from specialists, who emphasized the necessity and seriousness of these rays on human health.
Dr. Khaled Al-Daraan - Consultant of internal diseases, joint diseases, and rheumatism, Fellow Lupus Red, “Murshid” agreed to his words, stressing at the same time that every sane person has the right to approve or reject any result, whether it is rays with a dye or something else.

As for the songer Amal Al-Araini, she pointed to the necessity of medical education, saying (Here the importance of the medical education departments and their activation in hospitals can be referred to them and leave the most explanation for them. .
