British Baby 16th Person Ever Diagnosed With Rare Fatal Syndrome

Eleven-month-old Charlie Gard was born with an extremely rare genetic condition called mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome.

But his parents want to bring him to the United States for experimental treatment. Courts have decided in favor of the hospital.
