Wed, 10 Mar 2021 16:15:44 -0500 Irony https://nowcomment.com/documents/262545?scroll_to=2374209 https://nowcomment.com/documents/262545?scroll_to=2374209 There's a sense of Irony in how Deb believed that everything in her life would change for her "after London" but, even though it changed, it was a lot more back and forth than presumed to be. Things weren't perfect, there were good moments with the convention but also bad ones with the lawsuits and having to hide in fear of Cofield. Skloot made it seem like things were going to get a lot better by starting the chapter this way and titling it "after London" only for the readers to be tricked.

He discovered that cancer grew faster in the spot he injected the cells into and continued to grow after he removed the tumors. Then, Southam conducted an experiment on Ohio Prisoners who were cancer-free. The prisoners were praised by the media for their contribution to cancer research, the experiment was justified by some of the prisoners who said they deserved to be injected because of all the wrongs they committed. After, Southam begam injecting the cells into every patient without consent. This connects with previous chapters because Southam justified this action by saying telling the patients would only cause confusion and fear. As more scientists became aware of this, the Nuremberg Trials came up, which were a set of unethical experiments done on Jewish people by Nazi doctors that led to the Nuremberg Code. However, this code was a set of recommendations, not law, that said consent was needed. This opened a large debate with Southam defending himself by saying the code does not apply. The Medical Grievance Committee did find Southam guilty and the floodgates were open to several other medical research experiments that were done without consent. Mon, 01 Mar 2021 20:48:11 -0500 I would say this is bad reasoning https://nowcomment.com/documents/254672?scroll_to=2342850 https://nowcomment.com/documents/254672?scroll_to=2342850 because the patients had no choice in that matter, they should be able to choose to get free treatment for research or not. As patients, they have the right to know how they are being treated, even if the doctor believed they wouldn't understand.
