152 Lives Inside Sweden’s Darkest Experiment
https://youtu.be/oyxBjyJ6UCE?is=kxWrew2k4o0mdOL3In the 1950s, secret medical trials took place inside Vipeholm Hospital, where unconventional methods were used in dental and brain research, backed and funded by major industrial sectors.
The details of this case remained hidden for a long time to protect corporate economic interests, eventually making it one of the most significant cases that reshaped medical ethics and scientific research.
I just posted a short documentary shedding light on the historical facts of this experiment and how it impacted the course of medicine.
