CORONAVIRUS: The proportional death of blacks in US is it attributed to racism...

History has shown us that the consequences of infection are not equally felt by all communities. Almost 100 years ago, a 1926 syphilis survey conducted in the US state of Alabama showed that 36% of the people in Macon County had syphilis. Only 60 years after the legal abolition of slavery, Black Americans made up the majority of that county, barely keeping a living through sharecropping. In 1932, the county was chosen to become a living laboratory in which for the next few decades, Black men would be tested and examined to track the development of syphilis. The study was led by what was then known as the Tuskegee Institute, which recruited hundreds of residents, misleading them that they were receiving treatment. In the late 1940s, effective treatments became available for the disease, but the unwilling participants in the study were not given access to it. They did not become aware that they were being lied to until local media uncovered the truth in 1972. This story was not an isola...
