If you're speaking from an american perspective, this hand-wringing is unnecessary: we leave our own citizens exposed on the street. If we were capable of making decisions about who deserves xyz in the first place we wouldn't be living in such an obvious shithole to begin with. Maybe we should set our standards much lower if we aim for research to actually benefit humans.
