No problem. U.S. officials simply used other ways to infect the men, methods that are too gruesome to describe here. Keep in mind that these medical experiments took place in 1948, about the time that U.S. officials were prosecuting Nazi officials for subjecting human beings to gruesome medical experimentation.

In the 1950’s a doctor by the name of Chester Southham experiments with the cancer cells of a woman named Henrietta Lacks. He decided to use prisoners as subjects and found a willing population of inmates at an Ohio prison into which he injected cancer cells. Chester Southham’s desire to test the effects of HeLa cells on subjects with cancer and healthy subjects became concerning because he used prisoners as his test subjects. The prisoners from an Ohio prison consented to the injection of Henrietta’s cancer cells, but some people argue that we should not allow this type of research to be performed on prisoners again because the environment (prison) effects their ability to make autonomous decisions. Even though his experiments were controversial, Henrietta’s cancer cells were special because they were the “first immortal human cells ever grown in culture and thus vital to the development and discovery of several medical landmarks like the polo vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, and in vitro fertilization.” (Zielinski) Of the many ethical issues that arise in the book The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot, one of the most important topics revolves around the autonomy of the prisoner’s consent of such dangerous experimentation.

The main focus of propaganda was to convince large numbers of people that their cause was righteous.

Nazi Death Marches During WWII, Hitler ordered for all Jews to be taken to work camps, where they were forced to work in with little to no food. Most of the time the Jews would be making stuff for the German army such as, tools or clothing. The Jews had to have a strong spirit, or they would perish.

She placed a piece of root from an old tree between my teeth. ‘Bite on this.’ I was frozen with fear. ‘This is going to hurt!’ I mumbled over the root,” Waris Dirie reveals in her book, Desert Flower (192).

Nurses such as Nightingale and Barton are just two of many nurses who have created what is referred to today as nursing science. The creation of the science of nursing has opened the door for many
