A Hard Pill to Swallow - The Thalidomide Tragedy - A Disaster Documentary

This short disaster documentary follows the Thalidomide tragedy, which unfolded in the late 1950s and early 1960s, remains one of the most devastating pharmaceutical disasters in history. Marketed as a safe treatment for morning sickness in pregnant women, the drug was distributed across nearly 50 countries without adequate testing.
