More than 2000 Irish children in religious run homes were subjected to
drugs trials in the 1930s according to a shocking new report. As the Tuam
burial ground scandal erupts, it has now emerged that Catholic Church
run homes and state institutions let the children of unmarried mothers
be used in medical experiments.
The Irish Daily Mail has published a damning report which outlines how scientists secretly vaccinated more than 2,000 children in religious-run homes in suspected illegal drug trials. The paper says that old medical records show that 2,051 children and babies in Irish care homes were given a one-shot diphtheria vaccine for international drugs giant Burroughs Wellcome between 1930 and 1936.
