Grossest news item of the day

Apparently in 1946 American scientists purposefully infected Guatemalan prisoners with syphilis to test the effectiveness of Penicillin. Reprehensible.

President Obama plans to call the Guatemalan President to apologize.

How many other creepy and gross testing cases like this must exist?
