The article is not very clear about that. It does say that is decriminalizes posetion of limited quantities for adults, it requires that institutions research the drugs further, and does not decriminalize commercial sale.

Obviously there's some amount of risk with these drugs and you don't want them to be widespread and consumed daily (like alcohol, which is also nasty). But you need such laws for medical institutions (of all sizes) to be able to touch the drugs. No one is being negligent here.
