  • 📜 Curing Tuberculosis: The Hero Koch - Fascinatingly enough, tuberculosis was actually considered "trendy" in the Victorian era of Europe--but Dr. Robert Koch, hero of the German Empire, was convinced that he could cure it. A British writer named Arthur Conan Doyle, however, was a little skeptical, and for good reason.

    Enjoy today's extra-Extra History! Dr. Robert Koch was going to save Germany, and the rest of Europe, from tuberculosis. Maybe he would even get his own institute, like his medical rival Louis Pasteur. He knew for sure he was on to something...

    There's something important to know about TB that explains why it is so deadly: the pathogen stays alive in the air for hours. Hospital workers need to wear special masks to care for infected individuals because standard masks can't protect them. We may see this as a disease of the past, but it is not to be underestimated.

But you should *always* have a seed of doubt and do your own research into topics if you want a truly in-depth understanding. Just bear in mind that researching a topic by reading dozens of quality academic sources doesn't mean you can pronounce every word or name correctly.

The ‘t’ pronunciation is slightly different, a little less tip of the tongue, but still similar? Forgive me if I’m wrong, as I’ve said I’m not as familiar with non-English Germanic languages.

    Poor ACD had to wait outside. You should really do an episode on Doyle's life, it was crazy. He served on an a whaling ship in the artic in the middle of his medical school, he served on a ship in Africa, he was in politics, he traveled to Germany to become an ear doctor, he was a one of the first people to ski and was awarded the term Sportsman, he was in politics, defended a man against racist accusation, he went to south Africa during the Boa war to write an account for the government and he did the same during WWI. He wrote plays, historical novels, poems, ghost stories, supernatural tales and of cause he was one of the grandfathers of the detective genre. Most think of him as dumb and superstitious because in his later life he was into Spiritualism and how could someone who wrote Sherloxk Holmes be into spiritualism/sarcasm but so many people overlook the interesting man in favour of the fictional detective. Please do an episode on him that would be amazing. 😄

    My father, Dr. William E. Dye, and my mom, Atlanta G. (Brees) Dye, first met when working at a TB laboratory sometime after world war two. My dad ran the lab, and mom said that one of the things that attracted her to him was how good he was at improving their progress against the disease. Dad recognized that lab workers like my mom could do their experiments on a variation of the bacterium that was much less dangerous. Mom and the other lab workers could then work much more quickly. Dad also realized that TB treatments, which at the time had severe side-effects, didn't have to be administered continuously. Adjusting to the life-cycle of the bacterium, you could administer the harsh medicine just once every three days, giving the patient a much-needed break from the side-effects.
    Mom was impressive in her own right. She had a degree in both math and chemistry at a time when few women worked in the sciences, and dad said she was his best lab tech. I guess that's how they fell in love. Dad passed away some time ago, but mom is still alive at age 93. When I told her a few months ago that tuberculosis is making a comeback in some countries, she scoffed at said "of course it is". She explained that even in the 1940's and 50's, it was clear that the disease would keep adapting, and the bacterium is particularly adept at finding obscure places to hide, so total eradication will be difficult.

    After she died my grandfather hit the alcohol like there was no tomorrow until he left us.

  • @awetistic5295

    Koch made a huge mistake with Tuberkulin, but to be fair, he was pressured a lot by Wilhelm II. It was not that he only wanted his own institute for honor and glory, he and his fellow scientists worked in a badly equipped lab under horrible conditions. The renowned Charité was overcrowded, it didn't even have electricity and seriously lacked funding. His failure was not only caused by pride, but also by sheer necessity. Many people at that time still doubted his bacterial theories.

      Yes I’m well aware, but tell that to the many others who did it. Also the game has been out for about 3 months so it’s not like I’m the first to spoil it here. Also any people who played RDR1 know that he would die

    I love when Extra History talks about science, medicine, or both.
    Leaders and generals and wars are important in understanding history and their stories can be cool in their own right, but people who worked, took risks, sacrificed their time and effort (and in some cases reputations or even lives) to help others survive are the actual badasses. Moreso than any general could ever hope to be.
