Richard J. Tofel, a member of Harvard Public Health’s advisory board and former ProPublica president, reviewed the “riveting new book ‘Wonder Drug: The Secret History of Thalidomide in America and Its Hidden Victims’ by Jennifer Vanderbes in this July 17 article: “Wonder Drug” draws back the veil on thalidomide’s hidden American victims. Tofel’s review is an excellent 5-minute summary of the untold story of American thalidomide survivors and the U.S. Goverment’s failure to compensate them as most other countries have done.
