small pox in variolation experiment. You can read about this in one of our history articles, in the section:

The History of Innoculation.Â

1796

Edward Jenner injects healthy eight-year-old James Phillips first with cowpox then three months later

with smallpox and is hailed as discoverer of smallpox vaccine.

1845-1849

J. Marion Sims, the "Father of Gynecology" in the United States, conducts gynecological experiments on

slaves in South Carolina. You can read more on Dr Sims in our Biographies.Â

1865

French physiologist Claude Bernard publishes "Introduction to the Study of Human Experimentation,"

advising: "Never perform an experiment which might be harmful to the patient even though highly

advantageous to science or the health of others.

1874

Cincinnati physician Roberts Bartholow conducts brain surgery experiments on Mary Rafferty, a 30 yearold domestic servant dying of an infected ulcer.

1891

consent.

the Philippines killing thirteen.

1915

You can read about it here, in our History of Vitamins.Â

1919-1922

Testicular transplant experiments on five hundred prisoners at San Quentin

1931

Germany issues "Regulation on New Therapy and Experimentation" while 75 children die in Lubeck,

Germany from pediatrician's experiment with tuberculosis vaccine.

In America, Dr. Cornelius Rhoads, under the auspices of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical

Investigations, infects human subjects with cancer cells. He later goes on to establish the U.S. Army

Biological Warfare facilities in Maryland, Utah, and Panama, and is named to the U.S. Atomic Energy

Commission. While there, he begins a series of radiation exposure experiments on American soldiers and

civilian hospital patients.

1932

The Tuskegee Syphilis Study begins. 200 black men diagnosed with syphilis are never told of their

illness, are denied treatment, and instead are used as human guinea pigs in order to follow the progression

and symptoms of the disease. They all subsequently die from syphilis, their families never told that they

could have been treated.

This is one subject we will cover in depth some day soon.

1935

The Pellagra Incident. After millions of individuals die from Pellagra over a span of two decades, the

U.S. Public Health Service finally acts to stem the disease. The director of the agency admits it had

known for at least 20 years that Pellagra is caused by a niacin deficiency but failed to act since most of

the deaths occurred within poverty-stricken black populations.

1938

Chinese prisoners in Harbin.

research.

1939-1945

Unit 731. Dr Ishii begins "field tests" of germ warfare and vivisection experiments on thousands of

Chinese soldiers and civilians. Chinese people who rebelled against the Japanese occupation were

arrested and sent to Pingfan where they became human guinea pigs; there is evidence that some Russian

prisoners were also victims of medical atrocities. "I cut him open from the chest to the stomach and he

screamed terribly and his face was all twisted in agony. He made this unimaginable sound, he was

screaming so horribly. But then finally he stopped. This was all in a day's work for the surgeons, but it

really left an impression on me because it was my first time." These prisoners were called 'maruta'

(literally 'logs') by the Japanese. After succumbing to induced diseases â€â€ï¿½ including bubonic

plague, cholera, anthrax â€â€ï¿½ the prisoners were usually dissected while still alive, their bodies

then cremated within the compound. Tens of thousands died. The atrocities were committed by some of

Japan’s most distinguished doctors recruited by Dr. Ishii.

1940

Four hundred prisoners in Chicago are infected with Malaria in order to study the effects of new and

experimental drugs to combat the disease. Nazi doctors later on trial at Nuremberg will cite this American

study to defend their own actions during the Holocaust.

1941

Sterilization experiments at Auschwitz.

1941-1945

Typhus experiments at Buchenwald and Natzweiler concentration camps.

1942-1945

According to congressional hearings held in Washington, D. C., in September 1986, former American

POWs were among Ishii's experimental subjects. The hearings produced a litany of horror stories told by

former American POWs. http://www.researchprotection.org/history/chronology.htmlÂ

1942

Harvard biochemist Edward Cohn injects sixty-four Massachusetts prisoners with beef blood in U.S.

Navy-sponsored experiment.

High altitude or low pressure experiments at Dachau concentration camp.

scientists and offer them immunity and secret identities in exchange for work on top secret government

projects in the United States.

"Program F" is implemented by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). This is the most extensive

U.S. study of the health effects of fluoride, which was the key chemical component in atomic bomb

production. One of the most toxic chemicals known to man, fluoride, it is found, causes marked adverse

effects to the central nervous system but much of the information is squelched in the name of national

security because of fear that lawsuits would undermine full-scale production of atomic bombs.

1946

U.S. secret deal with Ishii and Unit 731 leaders cover up of germ warfare data based on human

experimentation in exchange for immunity from war-crimes prosecution. A top-secret U.S. Army Far

East Command report on Thompson's findings reads: "The value to the U.S. of Japanese biological

weapons data is of such importance to national security as to far outweigh the value accruing from warcrimes prosecution." A 1956 FBI memorandum reveals that by the mid-1950s the U.S. knew everything

about Ishii's human experiments but agreed not to prosecute in exchange for Japan's scientific data on

germ warfare. (In other words, when it comes to human torture and sacrifice, even of American

POW’S, the ends justify the means as far as the U.S. Government is concerned….and,

the U.S. Government placed a very high value on knowledge of efficient ways to kill large numbers of

people )

1946-1974

The Atomic Energy Commission authorized a series of experiments in which radioactive materials are

given to individuals in many cases without being informed they were the subject of an experiment, and in

some cases without any expectation of a positive benefit to the subjects, who were selected from

vulnerable populations such as the poor, elderly, and mentally retarded children (who were fed

radioactive oatmeal without the consent of their parents), and also from students at UC-San Francisco. In

1993, the experiments were uncovered and made public. In 1996, the United States settled with the

survivors for 4.9 million dollars.

San Francisco are exposed to the airborne germs Serratia marcescens and Bacillus glogigii. The germs

and chemicals used by the Army and Navy posed known health risks before and during the time of

testing. This is documented in scientific studies cited in The Eleventh Plague by Leonard A. Cole and in

Cole's previous book, Clouds of Secrecy: The Army's Germ Warfare Tests Over Populated Areas.

CIA initiates Project MKULTRA at eighty institutions on hundreds of subjects. This is an eleven year

research program designed to produce and test drugs and biological agents that would be used for mind

control and behavior modification. Six of the subprojects involved testing the agents on unwitting human

beings.

A declassified CIA document dated 7 Jan 1953[1] describes the experimental creation of multiple

personality in two 19-year old girls. "These subjects have clearly demonstrated that they can pass from a

fully awake state to a deep H [hypnotic] controlled state by telephone, by receiving written matter, or by

the use of code, signal, or words, and that control of those hypnotized can be passed from one individual

to another without great difficulty. It has also been shown by experimentation with these girls that they

can act as unwilling couriers for information purposes."

Linda MacDonald was a victim of Dr. Ewen Cameron’s destructive mind control experiments

in 1963. Dr. Cameron was at various times president of the American, Canadian, and World Psychiatric

Associations. He used a "treatment" which involved intensive application of these brainwashing

techniques; drug disinhibition, prolonged sleep treatment, and prolonged isolation, combined with ECT

[Electro Convulsive Therapy] treatments. The amount of electricity introduced into Linda’s

brain exceeded by 76.5 times the maximum amount recommended. Dr. Cameron’s technique

resulted in permanent and complete amnesia. To this day, Linda is unable to remember anything from her

birth to 1963. As recorded by nurses in her chart, she didn’t know her name and

didn’t recognize her children. She couldn’t read, drive, or use a toilet. Not only did

she not know her husband, she didn’t even know what a husband was. A class action suit
