I was a Samaritan – I love Samaritans. But for the sake of all who take those calls, it must change course | Peter Ormerod

#GiselePelicot is the hero of 2024. But the question remains- how can there be so many men willing to rape a comatose woman, within a 20 mile radius of a small country town?

Years later, BioNTech took notice.
Today, she won the Nobel Prize.
