no, not really, that's just a commonly believed myth
Wow. Tell that to all the dead people. Whatever helps you sleep at night. Anesthesia. Vaccines. More recently Tuskegee Syphilis Study.
ya, nothing was learned in the "Tuskegee Syphilis Study"(see racist torture), Vaccines also didn't one about because we just started injecting people with random shit, and we knew of Anesthesia for a long time, it just wasn't seen as something you use in medicine in more recent history because of religious superstitions in medicine.
again, Myths, just like the idea that we learned anything from Mengele's horrors
