I'm not sure if Health Canada has been made aware of them, but these are all things that are listed in medical journals, one published in 1963, I believe, that stated a lot of the different conditions that can occur with thalidomide. However, in 1963, when they did this, that was apparently when they took this government list as well, to find out.... I was an infant, maybe a couple of weeks old, when this was done.
A lot of us were missed. In 1962, they thought they would take the drug off the shelves. Well, in small towns like the one I grew up in, I can go and get a loaf of bread that's probably been on the shelf for two years. Things don't happen that quickly in small towns. A lot of us were born after it was pulled from the shelves.
