They tested vaccines on the homeless, the trial lasted five years. What was the verdict?

We know the end of the trial of doctors and nurses accused of testing vaccines on the homeless without their knowledge.

Nine people sat in the dock – employees of the clinic in Grodzisk. They were to test the avian flu vaccine on homeless people. Earlier, employees reported that it was a seasonal flu vaccine. The homeless received a small salary for such tests.

The court decided that employees were guilty of performing procedures without the consent of patients, certification of untruths in documents and exposure to the sponsor of clinical trials. The accused were charged with a suspended sentence. Additionally, defendants are banned from practicing their profession for five years.

The trial in this case lasted five years. Why so long? Because there was a very large number of victims – 350 people.
