Tell Me Why

Two births – two deaths – one cause? A mother and a baby die after the mothers received a controversial medication to induce labor. Is the drug to blame? "Spur" authors Jochen Breyer and Steffi Unsleber meet the families of the deceased, speak with midwives and doctors, and comb through databases and studies. The research shows: the drug should not have been approved in this way.

Also from 16:45-17:30.
