Syphilis was by and large eradicated in the west after World War II, owing to penicillin.
And some part of the other side of it:

"Oh say can you seeeeeeeeeeee
by the daaawn's early liiiiiiight...."
Comparing apples with apples:
- mentally ill patients. Well, we already knew that Hitler was inspired by and plagiarised AmriKKKa's forced-euthanasia program of people with disabilities. (Infecting them with syphilis first is not something I've heard of in the nazi case. May be an AmeriKKKan innovation?)
- prisoners. The nazi German state treated the Arischen among its Allied POWs according to the Geneva convention apparently, as even wartime (and possibly immediate post-war, but certainly not much later) American movies admitted.
- orphans. That's breaking new ground. :walg: A bit hazy, but I think nazi Germany enlisted their orphans for nazism's Arische purpose. Though I do wonder whether Guatemalan orphans would qualify. In any case, clearly, the kindly AmeriKKKan doctors - missionary perchance? lots of missionaries volunteering for the US govt's Peaceful Purposes in S America since ages -- consider the S American orphans to be streetrats: They infected them with syphilis after all. (Of course, AmeriKKKa also did experiments with African-origin persons concerning syphilis. Tuskegee I think it was called.)
Seems American "ethics" holds its own against those of the nazis.
Just some of the things people in AmriKKKa really ought to bring up when next certain Textbooks are opened in KKKalifornia.

Experiment infects 1500 with syphilis
Between 1946-48, in Guatemala, more than 1,500 soldiers, prisoners, orphans and mentally ill patients were deliberately infected with syphilis in an experiment by American doctors to test the effectiveness of penicillin.
