‎In 1840s Vienna, women were dying of childbed fever. Ignaz Semmelweis noticed doctors went straight from autopsies to deliveries without washing their hands. He ordered handwashing with lime, and death rates dropped from 18% to 2%. It worked. But his colleagues mocked him, forced him out, and he died forgotten in an asylum. Years later, germ theory proved him right. Today, Semmelweis is remembered as the “Savior of Mothers” the man who showed that something as simple as handwashing could save countless lives.
