Every young woman needs to hear about Thalidomide babies before they even think of taking the vax; those children have been lost in history. TY for remembering.
It could have happened to me. My mother told me she was sick the entire nine months before I was born. Her doctor mentioned Thalidomide to her as an option, but my mother refused it. There but for the grace of God, go I.
I just watched one of the documentaries on the Radium Girls over the weekend. I was shocked to find out that they actually encouraged the women to lick their brushes to a point -- radium and all -- to paint finer lines. Wow, just wow.

We're only going to learn...if it was an honest mistake to begin with.
Before thalidomide, there were Radium Girls. Check out several documentary videos on YouTube.
