It says "During a nine month investigation". If it was that hard to come up with, i doubt anybody would have the story. But the BBC doesn't lie.

Like the disinformation provided by CNN, NBC, CBS, FOX News on a regular basis?
I hope that has you chuckling too.

Yes, because I'm such a strong advocate of those news agencies.... not for any reason in particular, simply because when I want to question reporting of a news agency that hides the name of its reporters, people like you should be aloud to tell me other agencies misinform people as well.

Yes I do. Because they do and people like you conveniently forget this fact when it doesn't suit you.

Pardon me, but i'm the one questioning the legitimacy of this report and you have the nerve to tell me I forget the fact that news agencies mistort truths?
Wtf are you smoking?

It is obvious he has not even read the article because, if he had, he would have found the following information:

Also, just to confirm ChrisIsNotVeryBright, I had no problem getting more information. Perhaps he should learn how to use a search engine.

As to why it is not being reported, or at least commented upon, by the US media, I would think anyone with any capability for rational thought would be able to figure that one out.

That sounds like something that would happen in the USSR. I wouldn't believe it if it wasn't the BBC. That's MESSED UP.

I agree, but this sounds like something that would happen in the USA too.
Remembering Tuskegee
Here's another example of human experiments conducted in our free democratic society.
Human Radiation Experiments
I find BBC, NPR, and the DOE to be reliable sources on this subject.
Rather than attacking the messengers I prefer to question authority.

I can't recall any nation that can easily claim that they are and always have been on the moral high ground. Such claims are total BS.
All a nation can do is learn from history and keep its own and others mistakes heavily documented make it a requirement in both high school, college, and University to learn it.
Sadly history lessons are a joke in this country (Canada) and I'm sure the same is true for most if not all other nations.
As the saying goes; "We learn from history, that we learn nothing from history."

Guardian UK headline:
"NYC Denies Orphans Only Hope"
The Guardian has learned the children in the custody of NYC authorities denied medication to wards of the state. "These children face certain death. Today's medications are not going to be effective forever" says Florence Nightingale, a nurse specializing the treatment of AIDS. "These drugs may pose a risk, but we are in the last phase of clinical trials. We know what the toxicity profiles are in animals and healthy adult volunteers. Hopefully these medications would improve both the quality and length of these children, however unless the government relents, they will never have the opportunity"
City officials cite Anandtech protesters who raised questions about motivations.
Says Charlie Hacker, representative for Computer Users for Equitable Drug Testing, "These medications pose risk for children. They may have harmful side effects". When asked about alternatives, Mr. Hacker replied "Look, we all know this is about Big Pharma pushing it's agenda on the helpless. This isn't the USSR you know".
Ms. Nightingale replies "What do computer forum users know about clinical trials? Would they rather have their child not try a medication knowing the alternative is certain death?"
