Research on Tuberculosis in Nazi Germany and the Cruelest Medical Experiments on Jewish Children: An Observational Review

This article exposes a series of failed experiments on tuberculosis in adults, experiments without scientific validity.

It is now 75 years since liberation and the murdered children must be remembered. This observational review raises questions of medical and ethical values.PMID:33734628
