Fun fact. That’s the pharmaceutical industry for you. We kill people regularly in hospitals giving them placebos instead of the real drug.

I used to read the pamphlets on life saving drugs when I was bored in the hospital. Yeah, their clinical trials involve killing people. Whitewashed down to a fatality rate.

I thought giving a placebo to patients with life-threatening conditions when there are known treatments is medically unethical and not allowed?
