Убийца ли Ющенко?
Такая мысль мне тоже приходила в голову...
Я читала, что в Nature было опубликовано "опровержение" этой версии
ну раз опубликовано в столь значительном научном журнале...
Вот только никаких публикаций не было, была заметка в новостях: http://www.nature.com/news/2004/041122/full/041122-8.html, в которой представлено два мнения. Первое - В ответ на:John Henry, a clinical toxicologist at St Mary's Hospital, London, and a consultant for Britain's National Poisons Information Service, points out that current photos of Yushchenko's face show a dramatic transformation compared with a few months ago. He says that Yushchenko's disfiguring acne is almost certainly 'chloracne', a characteristic symptom of dioxin poisoning.
и второе
В ответ на:Marcello Lotti, an expert in occupational medicine at the University of Padua, Italy, questions the validity of Henry's conclusion. He argues that it is impossible to make such a diagnosis simply by looking at a photo. Lotti adds that he would be surprised if anyone were to select dioxin as a poison. "Dioxins have only modest toxicity and you would need an extremely high dose to get chloracne," he says. "Only kilos of contaminated food, administered over several days, would give you chloracne."
