Study underlines role of past injustices in medical mistrust

Memory of Tuskegee impacted vaccine uptake among Black Americans in the South

Black Americans living in Tuskegee, Alabama, closer to the location of the infamous Tuskegee Syphilis Study, were much slower to get their COVID-19 vaccines compared to white neighbors, according to a new study by University of Georgia researchers.

Published online this week in the Journal of Population Economics, the study reveals the long-term effects of the Tuskegee Study on one notable health behavior among Black populations – getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

I want to see a study like this about people who lost faith simply because they were not helped or truly listened to. Lots of people with complex illnesses have had similar experiences as each other.

People who have lost faith in the medical establishment don’t trust the medical establishment.

Amazing.

It’s 2024.

And most medical studies included exclusively white men until extremely recently.

I mean. Obviously not the especially unethical studies. Just the regular ones.
