Getting Some in Guatemala
Picking through musty files in a Pennsylvania archive, a Wellesley College professor made a heart-stopping discovery: US government scientists in the 1940s deliberately infected hundreds of Guatemalans with syphilis and gonorrhea in experiments conducted without the subjects’ permission.
Medical historian Susan M. Reverby happened upon the documents four or five years ago while researching the infamous Tuskegee syphilis study and later shared her findings with US government officials.
The unethical research was not publicly disclosed until yesterday, when President Obama and two Cabinet secretaries apologized to Guatemala’s government and people and pledged to never repeat the mistakes of the past — an era when it was not uncommon for doctors to experiment on patients without their consent.
That is so worthless and hollow for them to say that.

Those are not mistakes; they are criminal plans.
But they would never do that now! They just lie about everything else.
Even so, Reverby found in the files a story of almost singular exploitation and deception, conducted in a foreign land because, the nation’s surgeon general at the time acknowledged, it could not have been done in the United States....
Even though IT WAS DONE at the SAME TIME HERE!
In Tuskegee, scientists knew African-American sharecroppers had become infected with syphilis but withheld treatment, in the name of tracking the progression of the disease.
The holier-than-thou U.S. government?
In Guatemala, prisoners, soldiers, and inmates in mental asylums were willfully infected, sometimes by using prostitutes provided by the scientists, sometimes by pouring the germs onto skin abrasions the researchers caused.
That's even beyond torture -- but at least they got laid!
:-(
The US scientists — who had received the blessings of Guatemalan health authorities — were among the leading lights in the field of sexually transmitted disease research.
Kind of makes it all seem worth it, huh?
Of course, they would never pass that s*** around now, right?

Ever notice it i$ alway$ some pharmaceutical firm benefiting?
Flush with optimism in the dawning era of antibiotic treatment, they decided to expose vulnerable subjects to further their understanding of the effectiveness of the new drugs in treating sexually transmitted diseases....
And now they call it biotech.

I stand corrected.
The Guatemalan experiment happened at a time when biomedical research was expanding exponentially, but with a Wild West mentality.
Yeah, good thing it isn't like that now!
In Massachusetts, institutionalized children were fed oatmeal laced with radiation as part of nutrition experiments. In New York, elderly patients were injected with cancer cells....
And with the MERCURY and other CRAP in the VACCINES they wonder WHY WE DON'T WANT the NEEDLE or BELIEVE THEM?
Sorry, government but TOO MANY LIES and TOO MANY COVER-UPS for TOO LONG means YOU HAVE LOST US!!!
US government officials were stunned by the contents when shown the paper this summer....
BULL- SH.... anybody notice I haven't been cursing as much?
In a synopsis of her paper scheduled to appear in the January issue of the Journal of Policy History, Reverby writes that the Public Health Service embarked on the Guatemalan experiments even as it continued the work in Tuskegee.
And ABOVE you were left with the impression that it WAS NOT DONE HERE at the time!!
The researchers wanted to know whether penicillin could prevent — not just cure — syphilis. They also hoped their experiments would lead to better blood tests and dosing strategies for antibiotics.
Initially, Reverby reports, there was great enthusiasm for deceased researcher John C. Cutler’s work. One federal researcher told him that “your show is already attracting rather wide and favorable attention up here.’’
Isn't this crap the NAZIS SAID and DID?
What do you mean they never wrote it down (saw it on a Military Channel documentary; said the Holocaust™ was all talk, winks, nods, and hand gestures; can't get any more authentic than that, right)?
But the fascination with the Guatemalan experiment was fleeting, in no small part because the results were unimpressive.
And yet those POOR WRETCHES had to SUFFER!
The physician who supervised Cutler from the home base, according to documents found by Reverby, told the researcher, “I am a bit, in fact more than a bit, leery of the experiment with the insane people. They can not give consent, do not know what is going on, and if some goody organization got wind of the work, they would raise a lot of smoke.’’
Yeah, HE WAS NOT WORRIED about the ETHICS of it all -- and NEITHER is a GOVERNMENT that STARTS WARS over LIES and MURDERS MILLIONS!!!
Two years after the experiment began, it was ended.
So we are told.
The final report was secreted away in Cutler’s papers — along with photos taken by his wife, herself a Wellesley alumna.
Isn't that supposed to be a school of women's liberation?
Just another of the elite globalist training chambers the Globe endlessly promotes.
