Thalidomide - T'was a drug used in the late 50s, to relieve the effects of morning sickness in pregnant women. It wasn't until years after that they had realised, that atleast half of the mothers that used the drug, gave birth to flipper babies. Flipper babies being children with deformed limbs, sometimes just stumps for legs and arms.
How much of a medical science fail's that?
