On the 21st of December 2023, as we were frantically preparing for the festive season, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a final ruling to amend a provision of the 21st Century Cures Act. This allowed ... an exception from the requirement to obtain informed consent when a clinical investigation poses no more than a minimal risk to the human subject ... This ruling went into effect on January 22nd, 2024, which means it's already standard practice across America.
Wow this is authoritarian.
