"There is a big anti-circumcision campaign out there run by lunatic-fringe organisations and unfortunately they've infiltrated the medical profession," said Brian Morris, professor of molecular medical sciences at the University of Sydney.

"As a South Australian, I'm very concerned that South Australia might follow the stupidity of Victoria, NSW and WA. It's an absolutely appalling policy, designed to save a few dollars, I suspect."

LMAO the lunatics are the ones who think it is good to cut healthy sexual tissues off of newborns.
IMO I feel like society/culture sort of brainwashes you into what is "normal".

This doesn't make any sense. There is no connection between banning social circs in hospitals and finding unbiased advice.

I suspect the author really meant

PARENTS deciding to have their sons circumcised are struggling to find doctors who will perform circumcisions, as state governments begin to restrict access to the controversial procedure.

It seems the journalist is disappointed at the addition of circumcision to restricted hospital procedures (of which there are quite a few).
