    Independent local doctors were in on the “experiment” too and lied to the victims when they were reached for a second opinion. So it’s not just free medicine but paid ones as well.

    African American men lost 1.5 years of life expectancy because of medical mistrust arising from The Tuskegee Study. 1 Understandable since I won’t be going to the doctors either when they are trying to kill me. On the other hand, I die if I don’t go to the doctors. I sometimes feel that America is specifically designed to maximize damage to the psyche.
