Many people think that doctors and researchers took advantage of Henrietta Lacks by using her cells and giving her (or her family) no compensation for them. What do you think?

      Hela cells have been used for a lot of research and help developed the vaccine for polio. Is been used for research on cancer and aids. What I'm saying is, that her cells were very important for today advancement in medicine and its still very important for researchers today. I don't think they took advantage of her but they could at least compensate her family with insurance and maybe some money.
