"Clown Therapy" is a program where people dressed as clowns entertain patients either in hospital settings or their homes. It became popular in the United States because it helped cancer patients, especially children.

The article from BBC NEWS explains that women in Israel who underwent in vitro fertilization had a much higher success rates when they had also been entertained by clowns.

The doctor notes that the issue remains one of "who will pay the clowns?"

I hate clowns. When I think of clowns, I still think of John Wayne Gacy. Or Pennywise.
Besides, I have never found clown enetrtaining, except when used as target practice.
