Tuskegee Syphilis Study - First, Do No Harm | 1 (Ad-free)

De: Wondery

In early 1930s America, segregation is the law of the land, and syphilis remains a grave public health concern. A handful of white government doctors aims to treat African Americans in a rural Alabama county where infection rates are especially high. But several officials conspire to alter the program’s goals, launching a decades-long program that will stain medical history.©2022 Wondery (P)2022 Wondery

I'm surprised that you told this story!

I truly love the scandal series. The writing is compelling! I look forward to
the musical soundscape which adds a tension to the story. I have nearly stopped listening to fictional audio books, and have started following your wondery productions. The story of what happened at Tuskeegee moved my personality. My Dad refused to see a doctor in spite of VA and Medicare insurance, He couldn't get over what happened to all of those men and harbored deep mistrust for any government sponsored health care. It was interesting to hear the story from your perspective. It felt unbiased and concise. I appreciate all of your stories so far.
l especially thank you for tackling this one. Keep up the great work!
