After actually meeting the ordinary Irish woman, John quickly lost interest. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is an ordinary woman, in her thirties, white and fat, and unusually spicy. And even in the face of John, the most powerful man in New York City? Mr. Huntelaar, there was not a trace of fear on her face, and she even dared to wave the big broom at John......

It turns out that most of the so-called legends have the necessary historical background.

For example, Miss Mary, who is famous in the history of medicine, was full of curiosity before he came to meet him, and wanted to meet this famous patient. But what happens when you actually see it? An ordinary money-greedy woman, a simple situation, can leave a heavy mark in history, just because of the special background of the special era.

The concept of a healthy carrier was unheard of in the medical community at the beginning of the 20th century.

A healthy carrier is a person who has some kind of disease bacteria on his body, but does not have any symptoms. Miss Mary of Typhoid is one of them, which is why people who will work in the food industry in the future must have a health certificate, because no one knows what germs are carried under the surface of their health. But for physicians in the early 20th century, they couldn't understand that a person had bacteria in them and didn't get sick – in fact, they only tried to understand germs a decade ago!

So after meeting Mary of Typhoid herself, John was immediately uninterested.

Merely......

"John, what should we do about this?"

After seeing this spicy woman again, Ehrlich asked with some worry, "This thing is so weird, I'm almost sure it's her problem, but ......"

John understood Ehrlich's concerns, and in fact the history of typhoid Mary was also thriving. The police took her to the hospital and isolated her in an infectious disease hospital, but later reintegrated with public sympathy, even changing her name and working as a cook until another group contracted typhoid fever......

The reason why Mary with typhoid fever was able to cause such a big wave is also related to the United States in this era. At the beginning of the 20th century, the United States had just experienced the most glorious industrial era, but the darkest era for ordinary people, people questioned power and hated monopoly, creating a very special social atmosphere.

So when health officials don't have any evidence, they can't deal with the incident effectively.

"Huh."

Smiling helplessly, John could only start to do "popular science" for Ehrlich: "Paul, in fact, this matter is not so strange, but there are some things you don't know much about......

……

“…… That's the conclusion. ”

Facing the expectant Warren, Ehrlich, and many health officials, John spread his hands and said, "If you have carefully read a paper that I published many years ago, it should not be difficult to think of this. ”

"Uh......"

The others were nothing, and Ehrlich's face turned red all at once.

In fact, he had just remembered that he had indeed seen the idea from John's paper that bacteria could be in someone's body without making him sick. It's just that of course he wasn't very convinced by this argument, so he didn't subconsciously take it to heart, and now that he thinks about it......

"Let's take coercive measures."

Not wanting to embarrass Ehrlich too much, John said, "Let the police arrest her and send her to the hospital for a detailed examination, and if typhoid bacilli are detected, it will prove everything...... In addition, I will write an essay and publish it in both magazines and newspapers in response to public skepticism. “

John didn't have any good feelings about Miss Mary Typhoid Fever.

If she questioned the health department's extenuating diagnosis of her before the detection of typhoid bacilli, but then she did find typhoid bacilli in her body, and after escaping from the infectious disease hospital with the help of the public, she changed her name and surname to become a chef, which is unforgivable.

The end result was coercive measures taken by the police.

The laboratory department of Huntelaar General Hospital was busy, and soon sent John an examination report, which clearly stated that typhoid bacilli had been detected in her body, and this was the cause of Zhiming, who had infected dozens of people with typhoid fever and several deaths......

A week later, a paper was published on healthy carriers.

The New Medical Journal published a full text of the professional paper, while two newspapers in New York published a popular science article detailing the concept of a healthy carrier. John? The name Huntelaar gave the most convincing force to these two articles, so both doctors and the public easily accepted the concept.

In the United States in 1906, John? Huntelaar is synonymous with medical authority.

And Mary of typhoid fever, who had been tossed around a lot in history, had to be admitted to a government-run hospital and could not come out for a long time in the future......

……

In September 1906, John reached an agreement with the American Medical Association's Council on Medical Education and the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Education.

John was authorized on an individual basis to conduct surveys of medical education in the United States.

This is not a simple matter, in fact, because of John, the scale of the survey will be very large: not only the medical education in the United States and Canada, but also the leading medical education in Europe, and finally come to a conclusion. All fees will be paid by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Education, and John will be free to choose who participates in the survey.

After much deliberation, John sent a telegram to Flexner, the president of Princeton University.

John generally has a respectful attitude towards these people who have left their names in history. So after thinking about it, he still thinks Flexner is the best candidate. Anyway, he couldn't have gone to so many schools in person, and he didn't even want to do the work of data collation and analysis. So after inviting Flexner and assembling him a team of nine people, John waited for the data to come out.

Flexner accepted the invitation without complaint.

He was already an expert in higher education, and his research direction was also here, so he was naturally extremely interested in this task. Although the leader is no longer Flexner, John also stated in advance that in the future his name will be listed alongside his own, and the report will be named after him!

Just when the investigation team had just been formed and preparations were to begin in earnest after the New Year, another big man came to New York and sent a message to the Huntelaar Mansion...... (To be continued.) )
