Almost. They had contracted the syphillis themselves, which we then failed to treat on purpose. We purposefully gave the Guatemalens the disease.

A medical professional purposefully injected syphilis into a human being.

If you have a black bag full of penicillin, that’s a fairly subtle difference.
