Operation Whitecoat was a biodefense medical research program carried out by the United States Army at Fort Detrick, Maryland between 1954 and 1973. The program pursued medical research using volunteer enlisted personnel who were eventually nicknamed "Whitecoats". These volunteers, all conscientious objectors, including many members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, were informed of the purpose and goals of each project before providing consent to participate in any project. The stated purpose of the research was to defend troops and civilians against biological weapons.

  • Operació Whitecoat va ser el nom que va rebre un programa de recerca mèdica realitzat per l'exèrcit dels Estats Units entre 1954 i 1973 a Fort Detrick que va consistir en la realització d'experiments mèdics amb éssers humans voluntaris, escollits entre soldats reclutes registrats com a objectors de consciència de l'Església Adventista del Setè Dia. L'objectiu declarat d'aquests experiments consistia a experimentar la defensa contra armes biològiques i químiques. (ca)
  • Operation Whitecoat war der Name einer Operation der US Army von 1954–1973, in der medizinische Versuche an Freiwilligen durchgeführt wurden, die als „White Coats“ (zu Deutsch: Weißkittel) bezeichnet wurden. Bei den Freiwilligen handelte es sich um Kriegsdienstverweigerer, unter ihnen viele Mitglieder der Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten. Das erklärte Ziel der Experimente war es, einen Einsatz von biologischen Waffen gegen Streitkräfte und Zivilisten abwehren zu können. Man ging davon aus, dass die Sowjetunion ähnliche Programme durchführte. (de)

  • Operazione Whitecoat fu il nome assegnato a un'operazione segreta effettuata dall'esercito statunitense, nel periodo compreso tra il 1954 e il 1973, in cui vennero condotti sperimentazioni su volontari soprannominati appunto White Coats. I volontari, tutti obiettori di coscienza e membri della Chiesa Cristiana Avventista del Settimo Giorno acconsentirono, prima di essere arruolati, alla ricerca. Lo scopo ufficiale della ricerca era quello di difendere truppe e civili contro una eventuale guerra batteriologica in quanto si riteneva che l'URSS potesse effettuare tali attività. (it)

The stated purpose of the research was to defend troops and civilians against biological weapons. Although the program was discontinued in 1973, human use research for biodefense purposes is still conducted at the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) at Fort Detrick and at other government and civilian research institutes. However, these post-Whitecoat studies are often human use challenge studies, in which a person is inoculated with a known pathogen to determine how effective an investigational treatment will be.

Lo scopo ufficiale della ricerca era quello di difendere truppe e civili contro una eventuale guerra batteriologica in quanto si riteneva che l'URSS potesse effettuare tali attività. Circa 2300 "White Coats" contribuirono all'operazione, infettando i loro corpi con patogeni e germi, e testando successivamente l'efficacia di antibiotici e vaccini contro le malattie. Una volta che i volontari si ammalavano, veniva somministrato un trattamento medico. Ad alcuni soldati fu data una libera uscita di due settimane in cambio dell'utilizzo come cavie. Questi esperimenti furono eseguiti a che è un centro di ricerca dell'esercito USA localizzato nei dintorni di Washington DC. I "White Coats" furono esposti alla febbre Q, febbre gialla, Febbre della Rift Valley, epatite A, peste, tularemia, la e molte altre. (it)
