Rockefeller Foundation faces $1 billion lawsuit for infecting hundreds with Syphilis


Last week, a federal judge determined that The Johns Hopkins University, Rockefeller Foundation, and Bristol-Myers Squibb Co will face a $1 billion indictment over their involvement in a government experiment that infected hundreds with syphilis against their will or without their knowledge. Get the full story here: http://bit.ly/guatemala-experiment-ar... This is a big win for victims and their families, who have been seeking justice since the study first came to light in 2010. Though the Guatemalan syphilis study was funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) and led by a senior surgeon from the United States Public Health Service (both encompassed by the Department of Health and Human Services), no compensation has been offered by the government. Led by chief PHS physician John Cutler and funded by the NIH (both of which are departments of HHS), the Guatemala Syphilis Experiment was undoubtedly a U.S. endeavor. And the lack of ethics was not lost on those involved. While these companies clearly played a role in Guatemala, it is readily apparent that the U.S. government is ultimately responsible, despite the absence of any legal liability.
