MAGAs Poop In The Pool Snuffing Out Vegas Recovery

Not sure what you mean. 


The study didn't originate in England. Your version of what happened is a very white-washed version of the events. 

Tuskegee wasn't the first unethical syphilis study. In 2010, then-President Barack Obama and other federal officials apologized for another U.S.-sponsored experiment, conducted decades earlier in Guatemala. In that study, from 1946 to 1948, nearly 700 men and women—prisoners, soldiers, mental patients—were intentionally infected with syphilis (hundreds more people were exposed to other sexually transmitted diseases as part of the study) without their knowledge or consent.

The purpose of the study was to determine whether penicillin could prevent, not just cure, syphilis infection. Some of those who became infected never received medical treatment. The results of the study, which took place with the cooperation of Guatemalan government officials, were never published. The American public health researcher in charge of the project, Dr. John Cutler, went on to become a lead researcher in the Tuskegee experiments.

 

Golly, It is a real head-scratcher trying to understand why minorities don't trust vaccines.

Glad my post spurred at least one person, you, Mark, to look into it further.  Though I may have had the wrong country, my point was that there was at least one study(s) prior to the Tuskegee Experiment.  No attempt to whitewash on my part, no need to rudely shout me down.  I don't recall reading about the Guatemala study but I am always glad to have other perspectives.  I suspect there were others.  I also never heard ot using Pen propylactically to prevent syphilis.  That would be very bad medicine, if done.

Interesting details on who is, and who is not getting the vaccine.  Maybe Kevin is wrong again?

No actual details or info are presented in this "article"---just a bunch of random Twitter posts.

 

I knew what kind of "source" this was when i saw the headline about "THE LIBERAL MEDIA." Then this clown Vespa mentions "liberal bias." Then, of course, because he has to (being a conservative nutjob), he mentions "coastal elites." Yada yada yada yada yada.

 

We have dozens of studies as well as the ongoing reports from the CDC regarding the disparity in vaccinations between liberals and conservatives. The data are clear. But this bozo scraped something out of his ass to smear all over the internet (this is apparently a favorite method used by conservatives to get their messages across; see Capitol insurrection). It's, not to put too fine a point on it, bullshit. And stupid bullshit at that.

 

That "Town Hall" website is nothing more than an extremist conservative propaganda toilet. Whoever writes those articles isn't even remotely original--they use all the standard Trump-love conservitard buzzwords and phrases. We had a frequent poster here who, three or four times a day, posted something he'd found on Facebook to "prove" his idiotic beliefs. He would then threaten to kill anyone who pointed out that his garbage proved less than nothing. Thankfully, "Stalker" is gone. Are you planning on replacing him?

 

But gee, thanks for sharing! (You really should take a good long, hard look at yourself and try to figure out why you afford this nonsense any credibility whatsoever.)
