Such a sweet read, thank you. It's strange how the story would be so different if just a few more years had passed since the work on the compounds from fungi and bacteria had begun. Feynman's hope was totally on the right track. https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Crude-death-rates-for-tuberculosis-in-the-United-States-1900-2014-Note-that-with-the_fig1_307084755 https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Crude-death-rates-for-tu... I also found this interesting from the wiki for TB since it is thought Arline got TB from unpasteurized milk- "Robert Koch identified and described the bacillus causing tuberculosis, M. tuberculosis, on 24 March 1882. He received the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 1905 for this discovery. Koch did not believe the cattle and human tuberculosis diseases were similar, which delayed the recognition of infected milk as a source of infection. During the first half of the 1900s the risk of transmission from this source was dramatically reduced after the application of the pasteurization process."
