  • Summary

  • In today's episode of Healthcare Stories, we uncover one of the most infamous and unethical medical experiments in history: the Tuskegee syphilis study.

    Beginning in 1932 and spanning over 40 years, this government-sponsored study took advantage of 600 African American men in rural Alabama, deceiving them into believing they were receiving treatment for 'bad blood.' Instead, they were left untreated, even after penicillin became an available cure.

    Join us as we delve into the harrowing details of this study, its devastating impact on the participants and their families, and the lasting legacy it left on medical ethics and the African American community's trust in the healthcare system.
