Manage episode 375709509 series 2935879
In the 1990's a curious thing happened. When a patient arrived very ill to the emergency department, doctors and nurses were astonished to find crystals in her blood with a foul odor. Why were they smelling the blood? Who knows, it was the 90's?
Soon thereafter, multiple people in the hospital room with her started to fall ill. What might have caused these things to happen? We'll see if we can help figure out this historically unusual medical case.
