    I've known this story for years, and recognized it from the very beginning, but oh man hearing Mr. Ballen tell it in detail really brought it to life. It doesn't matter at all if the material is familiar. This guy could read my grocery list in a way that would horrify me.

      No midwife might not be as educated as doctors, but most of them are more educated. I would rather have a midwife deliver my baby as opposed to an arrogant, over educated doctor.

    This still goes on - I worked in a private facility for the very wealthy, and staff was dissuaded from wearing gloves so clients felt less like they were in a hospital versus a five star hotel - to keep up appearances for the families (and justify the cost) while risking everyone's health

    In 1865, the increasingly outspoken Semmelweis allegedly suffered a nervous breakdown and was committed to an asylum by his colleagues. In the asylum, he was beaten by the guards. He died 14 days later from a gangrenous wound on his right hand that may have been caused by the beating

    Seems like simple common sense now doesn't it...such a true tragedy that so many had to die before the common knowledge of cleanliness & it's relation to communicable disease was standard practice. Something that even children in our time understand...(COVID 19 drove home this fact in the most recent time). It seems outrageous to us now that Drs failed to wash & sterilise their hands, especially after performing autopsy, before coming into contact with a subsequent patient: but we must keep in mind that they simply didn't know. Every one of the tragic deaths in early medicine gave us the information & knowledge that we use today & are the true hero's of modern medicine. RIP to every one of them with great thanks.

    Before latex gloves were invented and got to be used , surgeons were supposed to wash their hands, scrubbing them with soaped brushes before any operation. The areas of knuckles and finger nails were treated with iodine. One can imagine what it did to their hands!

    Dr Semmelweiss was actually forced into an insane asylum. When he tried to leave, a scuffle ensued and his hand got cut. Subsequently, the cut turned gangrenous and he died in his 40's.
    Having had 11 children myself, I'm grateful for medical staff who wash their hands.
