Cruel experiments on dying lyudyah



At the time of the Manhattan Project (the United States government's program to develop nuclear weapons) scientists attended the harmful effects of plutonium on the body. To obtain precious information on the impact of radiation on the human, the project team decided on a monstrous experiment: 18 Americans without their consent were introduced various doses of plutonium. It must be said, to participate in the study chose only men who were thought to live for a long time - all those have been diagnosed or other serious diseases.

Joneses had painter Albert Stevens, also known as CAL-1 patient who was injected with 0, 2 g of plutonium-238 and 0, 75 micrograms of plutonium-239. Previously, doctors discovered he had cancer of the stomach, but after the introduction of plutonium when Stevens is already preparing for surgery to remove the tumor, it was found that the diagnosis was wrong - man suffered a form of running sores.

Scientists have not discovered the truth to him, and after the experiment he had spent more than twenty years, believing that the miraculously healed of cancer; at the time of death from heart problems amount of radiation received by Stevens was 67 Sv (Sv) despite the fact that a one-time exposure to 64 Sv transforms man into a charred corpse.
