Yellow Jack

shows how Major Walter Reed and the US Army Medical Corps used volunteer soldiers as guinea pigs to determine the cause and treatment for a disease called Yellow Jack. Set in turn-of-the-century Cuba, the doctors study a Cuban physician’s much-ridiculed theory that infected mosquitoes spread the disease. The drama focuses on soldiers who volunteer to be bitten and infected with the deadly disease, for which at that time there was no known cure.
