[From 10$/Pg] First International War CrimesR1How did the Lacks family, the media, and
the general population view the medical community during the 1950s? What is the
Nuremberg Code? How was it used, and was it easily enforced? Why or why not? I think its
amazing how much has changed in the healthcare field since the 1950’s. While reading this
book, it’s a remembrance of how healthcare has developed, including our society and media.
It is apparent in the book that the Lacks family did not have a positive view on the medical
community, but who can blame them especially the way that they were treated because of
their color. In the book it was questioned if the outcome would have been different if
Henrietta went to doctor sooner? But the Lacks family did not view the medical community
as an importance unless it was very serious. As for the media view, it was very apparent
how the media would change the story or would be strategic in how to get the information.
When the first new release went out two years after the death of Henrietta, they were not
aware of the HIPAA regulations, but did they even care because there were not any
consequences?The Nuremberg code is a ten-point principal guideline for medical
experimentation on human subjects. According to the guidelines, human experimentation is
only justified if it results benefit society, and it is carried out with basic principles that
“satisfy moral, ethical, and legal concepts” (THE UNIVERSITY of NORTH CAROLINA at
CHAPEL HILL, 2022). I do not believe that it was easily enforced. The Nuremberg code was
before the Lacks story began, but yet it is not enforced because several healthcare
professionals were not following it.How have ethics and laws around medical research with
human subjects changed? How is the medical community viewed today, and what do you
think would have happened in Henrietta Lacks’s case if she lived today? Support your
response by citing 2 to 3 reputable sources.Ethics and laws around medical research have
improved with human subjects. Although I believe that more medical research is performed
now, more than the future, but there are ethics and laws that are protecting those
individuals, as well as it being a decision they made. In all reality, it’s more than researching
human subjects, it also applies to using animals. In the world today, companies have to print
on the label that no testing was performed on animals. Now “the ethical and legal issues
relating to the conduct of clinical research involving human participants had raised the
concerns of policy makers, lawyers, scientists and clinicians for many years. The Declaration
of Helsinki established ethical principles applied to clinical research involving human
participants. The purpose of a clinical research is to systematically collect and analyse data
from which conclusions are drawn, that may be generalisable, so as to improve the clinical
2. practice and benefit patients in future” (Yip, C., 2016).Today the medical community is
viewed more positively than the past. If Henrietta Lack’s was living today, the treatment
would have been different. She would have been treated as an individual and not treated
based on her color. Additionally, there are several different treatment options, nor would
her treatment have been performed as they were in the 1950’s.References: THE

(2016). Legal and ethical issues in
research. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5037952/R2The Lack’s
situation reminds me of the present situation we are in now concerning Roe vs Wade.
Henrietta Lack after dying, without her husband permission, the doctors removed her cells
from a tumor. Now, how unethical is this procedure. They did not ask for permission, nor
did they have the right. These type of procedures happen here now. But like my first
statement, this procedure they did on Mrs. Lack is something like how the government is
banning abortion and making choice about a women body and how they reproduce. If
anyone knows about the death of Kendrick Johnson, they removed all his organs and stuffed
him with newspaper in order not to do a biopsy after his death. Its 2022 and no one can
seem the tell what happen to his organs. The Nuremberg Code is a set of 10 ethical research
principles for human experimentation. These rules were established by the U.S. v
Brandt case at Nuremberg, where the first international war crimes tribunal in history was
held after World War II. These principles are important also now in the present-tense due
to all the medical human experiments that go on daily that we as human do not even know
about. Today, experimenting includes cloning animals, using stem cell treatments for
patients and so many other human experiments. We must learn to adjust to so many new
medical changes in the world today. New develops of cancer treatment, new medications
and new technology. If the Lack’s situation happened today, there would be a lawsuit
waiting to happen. I do believe that’s one reason they have people participate in organ
donor when applying for your driver license too. You must have permission to do anything
these days especially taking someone’s cells from a tumor. That is criminal negligence in the
medical world. R3During the 1950’s, the media, the Lacks family, and the general
population viewed the medical community with the utmost fear and never-ending
embarrassment. It had become a habit to push things under the rug or keeping any type of
issues as quiet as possible. It was apparent that the medical community had become a topic
of discussion that no one wanted to participate in or had any answers to the questions being
asked or should i say are too ashamed to respond to. Mrs. Henrietta checked herself and
knew immediately that something was wrong. She found a foreign lump but was ashamed of
the issue with syphilis which made her it a secret not only from her partner but from her
family as well. Afterwards she did tell a friend and then proceeded to explain to her
husband that the blood she was experiencing was not from her period and she should be
checked out by a doctor but was more afraid of what the outcome would be with her womb.
In those times many procedures were completed without written or verbal consent. Some
procedures were also completed without the person being informed. There were many
questions of the reason for the medical field because it was doing more of a disservice for
3. the people and the community and more of a service for the organization on a whole. During
that era, it was also really expensive for the population to afford the cost of healthcare,
therefore leaving the population to choose between having some form of quality of life or
spend their whole life wondering how to pay for the healthcare that was an embarrassment
in the first place. It became apparent that the cost as well as, the financial burden stopped
many from seeking the help and turned to self-diagnosis and self-treatment as an option. In
those time the medical treatment only happened if there was a life-threatening emergency.
It was not foreign to see that proper care was not given or even refused in those days.The
Nuremberg Code was specifically set up to protect the human subjects in which were being
used for research. It is basically a set of 10 ethical guidelines for human experimentation.
Human consent is needed and should be 100% voluntary. Currently this is the most
impactful and influential aspect on the medical field, especially on the laws pertaining to
medical research. Listed below are the ten ethical guidelines which should be
met:1.Voluntary Consent2.Must be for the greater good of the Society3.Tested previously on
animals (this I do not always agree with 100%)4.Conducted without harm on mental,
physical or injury5.Refrain from research if believed to cause death or disability6.The risks
should never exceed the benefits 7.The facility being conducted in must protect the
subjects8.Conducted by qualified scientists9.Subject should always be at liberty to stop and
refuse10.Scientist in charge must be prepared to stop and terminate the experiment if
death, disability or injury is suspected.In my opinion, I think this was a difficult thing to
enforce due to many people not being in favor of it and failing to follow all of the rules.
When one look at incidents happening today, one may find many who are not fully aware of
all of the risks one could possibly incur. This apparently made away from the differentiation
between the rights and benefits of Germans and Jews. It also opened scenes for one to
notice the difference between a German and a Nazi. This law made others follow behind the
ones who could give consent and ones who is not fully able to.I n my opinion, i believe that
the medical community is seen much differently than it was viewed in those days. I think
there is much more trust due to code of ethics, professional standards and expectations put
in place. Although it medical field is still a business, it is not solely focusing on monetary
means but also focusing on treating the patient. If Henrietta was alive today, I believe that
her case would be given a platform but also settled out of court with no one knowing the
monetary outcomeReferencesAnnas, G. J., & Grodin, M. A. (1995). The Nazi doctors and the

the code was never adopted by the U.S. and instituted as practice? Any thoughts?
