"life unworthy of life"...

Eugenics
 
"  Eugenicists considered epilepsy an inherited disorder, and many states sterilized epileptics to prevent its spread. This was another of the eugenicists' misinformed stands — epilepsy's causes are still not fully understood..."

"Aktion T 4," the Nazi euthanasia program to eliminate "life unworthy of life"...Patients had to be reported if they suffered from schizophrenia, epilepsy..."

"The Nazi regime in Germany from 1933 to 1945 waged a veritable war throughout Europe to eliminate neurologic disease from the gene pool. Fueled by eugenic policies on racial hygiene, the Nazis first undertook a sterilization campaign against "mental defectives," which included neurologic patients with epilepsy and other disorders, as well as psychiatric patients. From 1939-41 the Nazis instead resorted to "euthanasia" of many of the same patients. Some neuroscientists were collaborators in this program, using patients for research, or using extracted brains following their murder..."

 Eugenics / Psychosurgery 
 
"We need a program of psychosurgery for political control of our society. The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who deviates from the given norm can be surgically mutilated. ...  Man does not have the right to develop his own mind. This kind of liberal orientation has great appeal. We must electronically control the brain..." - José Manuel Rodriguez Delgado, Spanish professor of physiology at Yale University

"He chose patients who were "desperately ill patients whose disorders had resisted all previous treatments" and implanted electrodes in about 25 of them. Most of these patients were either schizophrenics or epileptics."

 "...Psychosurgery, also called neurosurgery for mental disorder (NMD), is the neurosurgical treatment of mental disorder. It was introduced in 1930s and has a controversial history; Portuguese neurologist Egas Moniz is usually credited with being the originator of psychosurgery...Psychosurgery is a collaboration between psychiatrists and neurosurgeons. During the operation...a small piece of brain is destroyed or removed... interest in the neurosurgical treatment of mental illness is shifting from ablative psychosurgery to deep brain stimulation (DBS) where the aim is to stimulate areas of the brain with implanted electrodes."

"Traces of Eugenic Thought in the Work of Egas Moniz... the language of eugenics was present in his work and allowed for connections between the sexual sciences, neo-Malthusianism and medical hygiene."

 "... O autor revela que o peso do apoio da delegação brasileira no 1º Congresso  Internacional de Psicocirurgia, realizado em Lisboa – que foi responsável da moção que reconhecia o merecimento do Prémio para Egas Moniz –, terá sido de grande importância na decisão final..."

"Egas Moniz e a História da Psicocirurgia, A. J. Gonçalves Ferreira...
...Nos próximos anos se verá se estes novos procedimentos Psicocirúrgicos, com a sua elevada precisão e reversibilidade de efeitos, comprovam ser tão fecundos e seguros como parecem ser nestes primeiros passos. Outros estudos, ainda experimentais, pretendem testar novos alvos e diferentes tipos de Neuromodulação para tratar outras afecções: epilepsia, depressão grave, dor crónica. Afinal a Psicocirurgia, cujos princípios mantêm a sua validade apesar do ostracismo a que foram votados durante décadas, parece hoje renascer das cinzas. O enorme progresso científico entretanto registado e as técnicas inovadoras que não cessam de surgir podem impulsionar de novo a Psicocirurgia para a vanguarda da Medicina do século XXI. E confirmar assim a genialidade do legado de Egas Moniz."
  
 
 "A História do Brasil compreende, tradicionalmente, o período desde a chegada dos portugueses até os dias atuais...O período compreendido entre o Descobrimento do Brasil em 1500, (chamado pelos portugueses de Achamento do Brasil), até a Independência do Brasil, é chamado, no Brasil, de Período Colonial...."

"Durante décadas, milhares de pacientes foram internados à força, sem diagnóstico de doença mental, num enorme hospício na cidade de Barbacena, em Minas Gerais. Ali foram torturados, violentados e mortos sem que ninguém se importasse com seu destino. Eram apenas epilépticos, alcoólatras, homossexuais, prostitutas, meninas grávidas pelos patrões, mulheres confinadas pelos maridos, moças que haviam perdido a virgindade antes do casamento. Ninguém ouvia seus gritos...Morriam também de choque. Às vezes os eletrochoques eram tantos e tão fortes, que a sobrecarga derrubava a rede do município...No início dos anos 60, depois de conhecer a Colônia, o fotógrafo Luiz Alfredo, da revista O Cruzeiro, desabafou com o chefe: “Aquilo é um assassinato em massa”. Em 1979, o psiquiatra italiano Franco Basaglia, pioneiro da luta pelo fim dos manicômios que também visitou a Colônia, declarou numa coletiva de imprensa: “Estive hoje num campo de concentração nazista. Em lugar nenhum do mundo, presenciei uma tragédia como essa”."

Dr Virginia Soares de Souza and team...

"A Brazilian doctor who was charged with killing seven patients to free up beds at a hospital intensive care unit may have been responsible for as many as 300 deaths, according to a Health Ministry investigator.

...Prosecutors said Dr Virginia Soares de Souza and her medical team administered muscle relaxing drugs to patients, then reduced their oxygen supply, causing them to die of asphyxia at the  Universitary Evangelical Hospital in the southern city of Curitiba....

De Souza, a 56-year-old widow, was arrested last month and charged with seven counts of aggravated first degree murder. Three other doctors, three nurses and a physiotherapist who worked under De Souza have also been charged with murder.

...More cases are expected to emerge as investigators come through 1,700 medical records of patients who died in the last seven years at the hospital, where De Souza headed the intensive care unit.

...Parana state prosecutors asked police on Wednesday to investigate whether more hospital employees, including former managers, were involved in the case. "

"Pouco antes das 10 horas, telefonou para a Ouvidoria Geral do Estado do Paraná. Durante 30 minutos, a fisioterapeuta contou à atendente o que vinha lhe tirando o sono havia meses. Com a voz ofegante e embargada, narrou o que se passava no lugar onde trabalhava, a Unidade de Terapia Intensiva do Hospital Universitário Evangélico, o maior e mais antigo de Curitiba.

 Era uma denúncia sinistra: a equipe médica da UTI acelerava a morte de 
doentes em estado grave. Manipulava padrões de oxigênio de aparelhos respiratórios e ministrava aos doentes um coquetel de sedativos e bloqueadores neuromusculares...doutora Virgínia Helena Soares de Souza, diretora da Unidade há sete anos. A doutora Virgínia decidia quem deveria viver ou morrer na UTI."

"Shortly before 10 am, phoned the Police of the State of Paraná. For 30 minutes, the therapist told the attendant what was taking her sleep for months. Her voice choked and gasped, narrated what was happening in the place where she worked, the Intensive Care Unit of the Universitary Evangelical Hospital, the oldest and largest of Curitiba.
 
The complaint was grim: the medical ICU was accelerating the death of seriously ill. Manipulated patterns oxygen breathing of equipment's and ministered to patients a cocktail of sedatives and neuromuscular blockers ... Dr. Virginia Helena Soares de Souza, director of the Unit for seven years. was the one deciding who should live or die in the ICU. "

"Eugênio Chipkevitch (?, Ucrânia, 26 de abril de 1954) é um ex-médico e ex-psicoterapeuta ucraniano de ascendência judaica, naturalizado brasileiro, acusado de abusar sexualmente de seus pacientes adolescentes na clínica Instituto Paulista da Adolescência na cidade de São Paulo, tendo inclusive gravado cenas em vídeo, que foram achadas num lixo por técnico de telefonia e denunciou as imagens. Foi preso e condenado a penas de 114 anos de prisão por atentado violento ao pudor e corrupção de menores.

...Em 2002, um técnico de uma empresa telefônica que estava com outro ajudante no conserto da linha telefônica instalada no poste, estranhou ao ver um saco de lixo grande e de formato quadrado, ao lado do poste numa caçamba de entulho. Ao ver o que tinha dentro, encontrou várias fitas de vídeo no formato de filmadora portátil.
Decidiu que iria levar para casa para saber quais delas estavam em boa qualidade e descartar aquelas que não tivessem. Contou que havia 35 fitas num saco de lixo. Ao assistir as fitas, ficou surpreso com um homem abusando de jovens. Ele repassou as duas fitas a Rede Globo e ao SBT e o restante para Polícia Civil nos dias seguintes.
Nas mais de 15 horas de gravações, das quais apenas uma pequena parte foi ao ar, apareceram cenas de abusos sexuais cometidos contra cerca de 40 vítimas – todos meninos, com idade entre 8 e 17 anos. O médico sedava os pacientes, sob o pretexto de aplicar-lhes vacina, depois os despia e os acomodava na maca. Enquanto estavam inconscientes, fazia-lhes carícias, pegava-os no colo, manipulava seus órgãos genitais."
