Conflict between nations harms, not only its direct victims, but often the next generations. History teaches us that concord and international cooperation favors the progress of science, especially medicine, while wars and violence provoked by different religious, ideological, political, and sociocultural contexts hinder scientific research, to the detriment of humanity. The objective of this article is to recall some notable figures in the history of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), focusing on the negative consequences of ideological persecution for the science of CPR.
