Syphilis (Más de 16.000 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: Good. In 1932, the U.S. Public Health Service recruited 623 African American men from Macon County, Alabama, for a study of the effects of untreated syphilis in the Negro male. For the next 40 years--even after the development of penicillin, the cure for syphilis--these men were denied medical care for this potentially fatal disease.
