History
In 2269, the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) took a dozen Taurean refugees from to the medical facilities on Kinshasa. Their arrival became a sensation at the hospital where they were treated for endocrine mutations that left them sterile and requiring periodic absorption of life energy to survive. Leonard McCoy conceived the treatment protocol. 

The Enterprise had an uneventful departure from Kinshasa after delivering the Taureans.
