In April 1995, two college undergraduates in China posted a message on the
internet:
"Hi. This is Peking University … A young 21-year old student has become
very sick and is dying … Doctors at the best hospitals in Beijing cannot
cure her … So now we are asking the world — can somebody help us?"
Their friend, Zhu Ling, a chemistry student, was suffering stomach pain and
hair loss and was slowly becoming immobilized. The paralysis had spread up
into her diaphragm and was now preventing her from breathing. If the cause
wasn’t found soon, she would probably die.
More than 2,000 people around the world heeded the call for help, and a
graduate student and professor in the department of radiological sciences at
UCLA reviewed the replies and came up with an answer: thallium poisoning. |
