Patients in North, Guinea Pigs in South
Description
The North has established extreme strict principles and regulations in the field of human medical experimentation."Enlightened consent" is demanded of patients recruited uniquely on a volunteer basis. But do these principles apply in the South where ethical commissions are often, to some degree, ineffective or even non-existent, and where medical trials are frequently the only way poorer patients can gain access to treatments that would otherwise be financially out of reach?
