One of the greatest images of science

One of the greatest images of science...




A child suffering from a diabetic coma is carried on a bed on his way to enter a room containing a number of beds with other children suffering from the same coma, and inside them are the families of children awaiting the announcement of their children’s certain death...


One day in 1922, Dr. Banting and Dr. Best of the University of Toronto went into the room to begin an experiment in injecting children with insulin extract for the first time in history...


After they finished injecting the last child in the room, the first child had already come out of the coma, until all the children woke up, and the gloomy room designated for the last moments and accustomed to the sounds of screaming and crying, turned into a wedding hall in the literal sense.
