Yep. I wonder if someone educated him after the first error, and his mind is so far gone that he forgot and said it again.

Because they all look alike in Joe’s racist mind.

If Trump did that they’d impeach him in a heartbeat.

I live near a major medical school and participate in various research studies to earn $$$ and get me out of the house (and away from the laptop). Before these study start you have to sign 20 pages of disclosure regarding what they have planned. I think that lack of disclosure was at least part of the problem with the Tuskegee Syphilis Study.

But did the Medical Industry learn enough about syphilis to to find ways to fight it?

The "Tuskegee Syphilis Study" ran from 1937 to 1972. By 1947 it was known that penicillin was effective against syphilis, yet the study subjects were not informed that a treatment had become available, and they were never treated.

Correction: The study ran from 1932 to 1972, not 1937 to 1972.

I read somewhere that several years ago a journalist asked some senators, off the record, who the dumbest senator was. Every senator who answered the question said: Joe Biden.

“The prez of the United States should know the difference between a distinguished and historical military unit and the name of the study that black people cite as the source of their suspicion about medical advice from government’
Biden’s statement is also incredibly stupid, because if blacks are afraid to take a vaccine because they heard about the Tuskegee syphilis study, WHY WOULD HE WANT TO CONTINUE TO REMIND PEOPLE ABOUT THE STUDY. It ended 50 years ago. He is reinforcing their distrust of the government and medicine and causing more people to refuse the vaccine. But he’ s an idiot so what should we expect

Yeah, and if he wanted to allay their concerns, he would have to point out that a lot of white people are taking the vax, so black people have nothing to fear.

But then he would be insinuating they are stupid compared to whites.

He’s in a bind.

On a related note, I wish someone would do man-in-the-street interviews of blacks and ask them what their issue with the vax is. I have the sneaking suspicion they would have some intelligent, well-thought out answers and it is not they who are the stupid ones on this issue.

He’s too stupid to be an idiot. He’s a stark raving lunatic.
