Remem­ber the “ter­rible side effects” of the “drug-trial gone wrong” recently?

We’ve finally got some details:

Mr Wilson and the five others were each paid £2200 ($A5275) for taking part in the trial, but suffered con­vul­sions and organ fail­ure minutes after being admin­istered the test drug. All the other volun­teers have been released from hospital.

I had heart fail­ure, kidney fail­ure, pneu­mo­nia, sep­ti­cemia and liver fail­ure and was vent­il­ated on 99 per cent oxygen,” Mr Wilson said.

Is anyone else deeply sus­pi­cious about this? Even if it really was an acci­dent, I’m almost 100% cer­tain there are some very intrigued mil­it­ary per­son­nel having chats with that phar­ma­ceut­ical com­pany right now. “Within minutes, you say? Fascinating.”
