About this episode

In February 1994, Gloria Ramirez was rushed to Riverside General Hospital in California...and within minutes, the medical staff treating her started collapsing. Twenty-three people reported symptoms that night; one doctor spent two weeks on a respirator. Three competing explanations emerged: a chemical reaction in her blood, mass hysteria, or a cover-up involving a hospital meth lab. And thirty years later, none of them have been proven.
