"Ignaz Semmelweis
Saved Lives: Wash
Your Hands"
by Dr. Howard Markel
Historians are quick to remind that Semmelweis
was not the first physician to make this clinical
connection, one that many expectant mothers of
the era called “the doctor’s plague.” For example,
the obstetrician Alexander Gordon Aberdeen,
Scotland, suggested in his 1795 Treatise on the
Epidemic of Puerperal Fever that midwives and
doctors who had recently treated women for
puerperal fever spread the malady to other women.
More famously, in 1843 Oliver Wendell Holmes, the
Harvard anatomist and self-proclaimed “autocrat of
the breakfast table,” published “The
Contagiousness of Puerperal Fever,” in which he
discerned that disease was spread by physicians
and recommended that actively practicing
obstetricians abstain from performing autopsies
on women who died of puerperal fever as one of
their “paramount obligations to society.”
