Description

History testifies to the need for protecting human beings who serve as subjects of experimentation. (1) Requiring voluntary informed consent is intended to protect the life, health, dignity, and autonomy of subjects. However, in the case of first responders, waiving informed consent is justified in some cases. Understandably, the mere thought of waiving the informed consent requirement causes the entire world to shudder. The prospect reminds us of the inhumane Nazi and Tuskegee experiments. The Nazis performed heinous experiments that included freezing and thawing humans, testing various poisons and methods of sterilization, injecting humans with typhus and malaria, testing bone, nerve and muscle regeneration, and bone transplantation. There were seemingly fetishist experiments conducted under the supervision of researchers such as Josef Mengele. (2) These experiments were justified by the "important information" they produced for furthering the German war effort, purifying the German race, and affirming German superiority. When the world learned of the horrors of these experiments, there was a collective determination to protect human beings from exploitation in the name of science. International documents such as the Nuremberg Code and the Declaration of Helsinki were composed to require the voluntary, informed consent of all human subjects. (3)
