Review of The Bleeding Edge (2018) by Deanomite — 24 Jan 2020
Good healthcare documentaries are very rare, this one is about medical devices implanted in people, the innovations and the power of companies producing them. This covers birth control implants, hips (10 million replacement hips causing neurological problems).
Surgical mesh getting wrapped around nerves, slicing open genitals-19 surgeries to remove mesh. Johnson and Johnson paid $300m in lawsuits in a decade, made $683b in profits off it. 50,000 people a year getting cancer from ct scans.
FDA installing spyware on doctor and scientist computers. it looks like this documentary got essure taken off market.
