, ' Violation of Law '
. and Ethics In th
P r Ian Gulf
A Pentagon plan to in
noculate American soldiers
with an a experimental vac
cine is a violation of medical
ethics that stemmed from
the post-World War II trials .
of Nazi doctors.
The soldiers are being in
jected without their consent
with an experimental vac
cine used to supposedly
ward off some of the effect
of biological warfare.
The Pentagon plan to use,
the soldiers as guinea pigs is
illegal and unethical, accord
ing to thc Nurembej' Code.
This set of ethical guidelines
created in'1947, outlawed
human experimentation
without consent.
