@0:16 "they thought they came here to take part in medical testing of a new drug"...and they did sooooo.....?

@1:45 "I was intensive care, fighting for my life, and someone was responsible for that" like maybe the person who signed up to take these experimental drugs?

I too was not particularly outraged - just fascinated. Actually I chuckled a couple of times at some of their statements spoken as if they didn't know they were gambling - "How could this happen?" and so on.

The guy who developed the drug had a cytokine storm in mind. He heard that immunotherapy works and decided to have the immune system attack everything would be a good start for cancer treatment. It's actually pretty genius, I would be curious to see how many cancer patients eliminate their disease after a cytokine storm... Its basically the haymaker hail mary punch to any disease. The only downside is all of your organs shut down and you die, unless you have a team of doctors and nurses around you keeping you alive.
