Original Note:
The U.S. Public Health Service Syphilis Study at Tuskegee was conducted from 1932-1972 to observe untreated syphilis, despite treatment becoming available during the study. The subjects, their families, and sexual partners did not make a sacrifice; they were sacrificed. https://www.nytimes.com/1972/07/26/archives/syphilis-victims-in-us-study-went-untreated-for-40-years-syphilis.html
