Alzheimer’s disease acquired from historic medical treatments
29 January 2024

*** begin quote ***

First known instance of transmitted Alzheimer’s disease observed; condition in five patients linked to childhood infusions of human growth hormone sourced from tainted cadavers, seeding misfolded proteins which led to Alzheimer’s decades later 

*** end quote ***

Here we have evidence of Unintended Consequences of a medical treatment that has not stood the test of time.

Like Thalidomide, which took generations to show its ill effects, new “stuff” needs to be “time tested” with a increase emphasis on “risk acceptance”.
