“塔斯克基研究”(1932—1972)是美国公共卫生署以观察梅毒在黑人病患身体中的自然发展情形而出现的医疗丑闻。在医疗资源长期贫乏与种族隔离的情况下,黑人病患和医护人员之所以参与其中,有其自身的考虑。他们深信,如欲得到医疗照顾,突破美国医疗界种族隔离的藩篱,唯有参与“塔斯克基研究”这一途径。黑人的这种思维模式可追溯至布克·华盛顿的妥协传统和“全国黑人健康周”的经历。黑人医护人员认为,“塔斯克基研究”是发现科学新知的过程,他们的合作和参与可以改善黑人的健康状况,而且他们期望这是一个将黑人病患纳入政府医疗体系的机会。黑人病患对医疗照顾的渴求以及医护人员的期盼,使得该医疗实验持续了长达40年之久。
“Tuskeck Research ” (1932-1972) is a medical scandal by the U.S. Department of Public Health to observe the natural progression of syphilis among black patients. With the chronic lack of medical resources and apartheid, the participation of black patients and health care workers has their own considerations. They are convinced that if they want to get medical care and break through the barrier of apartheid in the U.S. medical community, they will only participate in the “Tuskege Research.” This pattern of thinking in blacks goes back to the compromise tradition of Booker Washington and the experience of the National Black Health Week. Black paramedics believe that “Tuskegee Research” is a process of discovering new scientific innovations that their collaboration and participation can improve the health of blacks and they expect it to be an opportunity to include blacks in the government health system. The thirst for medical care and the expectations of health care workers in blacks led to the medical experiment lasting more than 40 years.
