For whatever reason, I was really moved by this installment. As a long time sufferer of chronic depression, it was sad to hear about Paul Ehrlich. To be dedicated to a passion with such far reaching positive intentions, yet to be attacked in that way has got to be incredibly painful.
This video helped me! Not only did my teacher recommend that we watch this video. I became interested in microbiology now! This video taught me a lot, and i am glad that my teacher recommended us to watch this video. Thanks a lot, Prof!
The thought that those people, and the teams who worked with them, saved millions of lives boggles my mind. And not just that, the amount of needless suffering that's been avoided, the terror, the pain, to this day...

It's sobering to think about how without the kinds of developments made by these people, there's a decent chance my own toenails would've killed me earlier this year.
Sterilization and cleanliness are so associated with surgery that it's absurd to us how bad things were before we knew better. Maybe in 150 years people will think medicine today was just as absurd due to greater knowledge and technology.
For sure they will. Students will be talking about, "can you believe that actual humans used to perform surgeries on other human? Gross. No way would I let any of you people ever operate on me. I'm sticking with Microsoft all the way."
I need more videos like this. I'm currently going to school o be a Biochemist. I find human biology so interesting but actually having to learn it is boring. I want to get into it already. Ha. But I know i can't unless I know the basics.
Geesh this course was hard so glad it’s over A&P 1 and 2 I got A’s as well as organic chemistry.I got a B- in microbiology I’m taking it and running it was hard whilst working full time etc the particular Professor I had gave no extra credit and we were quizzed weekly I’m just glad it’s over I find the students who got A’s in my class didn’t work and had time to dedicate to get A’s so I’m not gonna beat myself up too much I did the best I could
Damn, ya learn something everyday. I hadn't heard the name Joseph Lister but given the nature of his work, the mouthwash, "Listerine" came to mind. Looked it up and sure enough, it was named after Joseph Lister 🤓

Should I animate the photos? Would that make them less dead? That would take ages to make though.... Also - still don't know what? There's a lot we don't know, so that comment doesn't mean much....

Professor Dave returns when no one expected

They weren't spheres though were they? I thought they were just circles with convex faces
Thanks!
These people has changed entire stigma around sick people
Truly gems of humanity

I’m majoring in microbiology. I like this video.
Oh, awesome, I have been looking forward to seeing more from this series!

Makes me think of Star Trek the Journey Home - the doctor in the hospital looking for Checkov. Barbarians we are 😉
For sure they will. Students will be talking about, "can you believe that actual humans used to perform surgeries on other human? Gross. No way would I let any of you people ever operate on me. I'm sticking with Microsoft all the way."
It kept me hooked till the end..
Great video Dr. Dave🤝
That was so interesting and informative! Thank you so much! I must've been looking for a video like this forever.
Microbe history quiz coming up next week. Thanks for the head-start, Prof!
Very good video Dave, much appreciated.
Thank you so much for your palatable communication of such interesting and important history/knowledge.
EXCELENTE TRABAJO. Felicitaciones a TODOS LOS DEL EQUIPO DE EDICIÓN. Gracias por compartir
Abrazos desde Dosquebradas Risaralda COLOMBIA
Wonderful information.. Thanks
You here name Joseph Lister but before him Ignaz Semmelweis made important suggestions like washing hands and wear clean clothes before operating.
Thank you for another great video.
Amazing video👏
Great video!

Can anyone provide me with the source of the photograph at 4:38?
Try the Welcome Library.
I am here ❤️
Riveting topic. Very well told!
Excited!!🔥
My goodness i love this topic so much
What, no Semmelweis? 🎶Semmelweis, Semmelweis; Just wash your hands and don't kill her🎶
Interesting video 👌
my god i'm learning so much from your videos
thank you 🌱

Great 👍👍
surprised you didn't mention Ignatz Semmelweis, Who pioneered hand washing and inspired pasteur.

Who would have thought that the one that doesn't have things popping into existence would be right .
So obvious now , but not that much back then.

Never have been so early in my life. TH-cam finally is functioning right
Hello Professor Dave!
All this hard work by many ingenious scientists and yet now we have to cope with an army of antivaxxers...
Less of an "army," more of a "shouting minority." Social media and TH-cam gives these morons a megaphone to amplify their spew.

This is a great video, I really appreciate this channel

Got a lot of cleaning to do.
Call me Ehrlich because I’m years ahead on this comment section for once!
Yey, I am a MedTech Student and I learned more from this video. Thank you Chemistry God!
Your awesome
Very informative.
Zauberkugel translates best to magical sphere/ball
No, Kugel in German also means "bullet" and Ehrlich used the word in this sense.
I must confess I didnt recognize Zauberkugel was a medicinal concept by Ehrlich
Hey you should make some videos on comparative anatomy. Nobody explains stuff like you :/

Sorry. But Egyptians were doing this a thousand years before Europe.
Um, no. They were not.

Do you have a single fact to back that up
Fermentation? Sure.
Applying Koch's postulates and treating diseases with vaccines? No.

Yea and you still don’t know , looking at a dead set of photos doesn’t prove much
Photos are inanimate objects. They can't be "dead". What you're saying is meaningless.
Should I animate the photos? Would that make them less dead? That would take ages to make though.... Also - still don't know what? There's a lot we don't know, so that comment doesn't mean much....
