"Gudrun og det hvide snit" afdækker et grumt stykke danmarkshistorie. Gennem sin barndom har forfatter og journalist Janne Aagaard besøgt sin mors moster Gudrun på et plejehjem i Arden og undret sig over Gudruns skæbne: "Hun var lidt af en legende i vores familie. Gudrun, der var indlagt stort set hele sit liv, damen med bare et ben, hende der elskede mænd. Skammen og skylden lå som et stort tæppe over hende og hendes begrædelige liv." Gudrun er en af de 4500 danskere, der fra midten af 1940’ene og 40 år frem fik det hvide snit - det sidste blev udført i 1983.

Стоит ли делать ребенку прививки и если да, то зачем? Ответы на эти вопросы до сих пор неочевидны для многих родителей. Американский педиатр, специалист по инфекционным заболеваниям и один из создателей вакцины против ротавируса Пол Оффит ставит вопрос более жестко: стоит ли давать родителям право такого выбора? Результатом массовых отказов от прививок стало возвращение эпидемий почти забытых болезней: коклюша, кори, менингита. Стремясь оградить детей от побочных эффектов вакцин, взрослые поддаются массовой истерии, основанной на неподтвержденных данных и эмоциональных реакциях.

Im Laufe des Medizinstudiums lernt man eine Auswahl möglicher klinischer Karrieren kennen und wird einzig auf diese klar definierten Karrierewege vorbereitet.
