Numbers are Contradictory

[edit]

The article initially says that experiments were performed on "hundreds" of Indian soldiers. It then says over 20,000 British servicemen were tested between 1916 and 1989, but then goes on to say that more than 20,000 Indians were experimented on. What was the actual number of Indians subjected to these tests, several hundred, or more than 20,000? 2600:1700:4070:6240:8522:F885:A823:3D5E (talk) 21:53, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The source article in the Guardian only claims hundreds were tested on and makes no claim of 20,000 (exept in mentioning that 20,000 British servicemen were subject to tests at Porton Down). 2.103.160.114 (talk) 02:24, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
