And let's not forget about the whitewashing of Japan's WW2 bioweapons program that is being maintained by our government to this day! They didn't just lie about it to make it go away. They decided that was such a cool thing that they wanted to make it their very own. And so they did.

The biggest difference between now and back then is that those weapons are pointed at the citizens of western governments rather than enemies abroad.

"the leading role in A-Bomb medical care was not taken by the national government; quite the opposite" is quite correct, yet shows a naïeveté about government. Neither Japan's nor the US government should be expected to take such a leading role. Government go to war and drop inhumane bombs on civilians, so it is no wonder they tend to cover up the results instead of scientifically document them.
