During the late 1950s and early 1960s, doctors across the world routinely prescribed thalidomide to pregnant women in attempts to ease nausea.
However, thalidomide caused fetal anomalies when consumed during pregnancy and resulted in the death of 40% of babies.

PETA Applauds #NIH for Investing $150 Million in Non-Animal Science.
Good, #AnimalTesting is senseless anyway, I only remind of the #Thalidomide scandal in Germany in the late 1950s/early 1960s.

Famous one being #Thalidomide in a specific tragic error of judgement. Still in use in #NHS it now treats #multiplemyeloma by strengthening immune system to fight #cancer cells.
For my generation; it's a haunting spectre; the likes of #VictoriaAtkins exploited it with her unnecessary emergency ban.

"Dr Frances Oldham Kelsey made history [..] she served as the proverbial red tape of the federal bureaucracy. She challenged a drug’s safety claims and repeatedly refused to approve its sale in the United States — a decision that saved lives and prevented widespread harm."

The thalidomide case demonstrated the need for rigorous regulation of new medicines - the kind of regulation that Farage opposes. His idol Trump, meanwhile, is gutting the FDA, which prevented the marketing of #thalidomide in the US.

Especially when science is bought by politics
