Postscript summary
A medical officer at the Food and Drug Administration, Francis Kelsey received a request in 1961 to approve thalidomide for use in America but was not convinced that adequate studies into its safety had been carried out. With transcripts of phone calls and correspondence, this account traces the pressure Kelsey was put under to authorize the drug.
