This is coming much faster than I imagined.
Just like quack doctors who performed lobotomies, or injected black men with syphilis in the name of some corrupt social ideology - the doctors and hospitals who did (and do) this are putting their reputations, finances, and maybe even their lives, on the line when the obvious backlash occurs.
It was so obvious. But not to them.
“It was so obvious. But not to them.”
My hope is that after the blow-back from the lawsuits, the next push-back is that malpractice insurance companies start refusing to cover physicians who perform such surgeries. I believe once juries of mothers, fathers, and grandparents see the harm caused these children, the punitive damages will be enormous. Eventually, the insurance corporations will have to start looking at their bottom line.
“or injected black men”
This is not true. The men had it already but were not treated. Horrible enough but not what the legend says.
