The American medical profession was largely unregulated and dangerous prior to the discovery of the germ in the 19th century. What's the most surprising thing you learned from this video?

Still is the same today, but it happens so slowly you don't realize it. Me: Eat organic whole foods, 6-7 hours sleep minimum in complete darkness, drink quality water, move your body, go outside and get your vitamin D, know about the placebo and nocebo effect. My Doctor: Ok, i'll give you a prescription for it.

4:29 The Bible already said it for centuries: "So they shall wash their hands and their feet, lest they die. And it shall be a statute forever to them-to him and his descendants throughout their generations.” To clean the body with running wather to be clean.

Yeah but you need soap. It's true that Jewish religious leaders centuries ago figured out a lot of things about good hygiene through trial and error (not really through science). But that's still not washing your hands with soap, which was a hugely important idea and has saved countless lives.

I like that visual representation of "not a lucrative profession" at 0:48.

I mean, every new century will have someone saying this about the previous century.

My grandpa went to the doctor in 21st century and it killed him so nothing changed.

@@Aracuru There were wise women during the medieval era who were known for the knowledge of herbs and how to help someone, they could also help with births and (sometimes) abortions. There were the first person a poor person would go to and most of their knowledge was generational. During the medieval era, physicians and doctors still believed in the theories created by Hippocrates (theory of the four Humours) and Galen (Theory of Opposites) and many of them would speak badly of the wise women as they needed to stay important and simply because they were women. I think if they did that, they’d do the same during the renaissance and Industrial Revolution eras too. (Let me know if you want a source to the wise women and I’ll try find one for you, I learnt all this from history classes)

The person responsible for saving all those lives was Dr Ignaz Semmelweis. A Doctor in Vienna who told his students to wash their hands between attending patients. He was treated like a madman and died in a mental health facility 2 weeks after being admitted from... wait for the sad irony... an infection caused by the guards beating him up on arrival. Edit: Nevermind, just hit the 3 minute mark and realised it's already been said 🤣

19th century deadly doctor issue Versus 21st century deadly doctor issue= Same basic story, but replace lack of hygiene with antibiotic resistance.

What I found disturbing most is during the civil war if surgeons BELIEVED a wound was self inflicted ( with no proof) they considered you a coward and they would saw off more of a limb then nesscary and even saw when it wasn't even needed! With a million shots flying around it's crazy to think that they could assume that you just shot yourself. Sure some did to get out of duty but even self shot wounds could have very well been accidental either from a gun going off premature or your buddy accidentally shooting you in the black cannon smoke. And with all those guns going off to say you got shot makes full sense and not questionable.

😲vintage med practices have been life risking 💊💉🌡

Oh my, life was very hard that time😣😅

*No big Deal!*

No better training after school then good old OJT aka on the job training and what better way for a surgeon or doctor to learn hands on part then doing it on a real patient and a real surgical operation

Doctors keep our health in check? If that’s true, they should be graded a C- in the US if you look at the statistics of obesity and diabetes. It’s up to the individual to keep their health in check. A general practitioner merely looks at vitals and looks at your bloodwork. They will then treat symptoms caused by disease more than likely with medication. Infections and trauma are a different matter altogether that doctors absolutely are required to intervene and the science of that discipline would’ve appeared like magic compared to 19th century medicine - saving millions of lives yearly that would’ve been a death sentence back then.

Funny now in amarica before going to a doctor your first go to the bank to get a loan :(

They sound more like Butchers than Doctors to me tbh...

4:29 Wait wut?! So they didn't do before, like at all?

In 19th century : Doctors to all the medical workers, "Wash your hand before doing anything in the hospital." Several Hundred of years later..... 2020 : WHO to the whole world, "Wash your hands...........not only that, Sanitize your hands, Social distancing, Quarantine yourself if got infected by Cov19."

So basically Ignaz semmelweiz gave the idea of thousands of scrubbing scenes for grey's anatomy 😅

Imagine going to the doctor just for a small cut and having it amputated. Now there just give med if it got infected. So much better.

I was thinking about the Ripper (Jack) knowing that chloroform has just been introduced. and none of the victims was known to scream, operations were in the vision of the performer before anesthetics done as fast as one could do. jack is a wannabe surgeon. using chloroform to practice his skills in silence. (wearing a leather apron for good measure)

the difficulties of living I Putu Aris Artha Wiguna living trapped on the small and unsophisticated island of Bali for 18 years make equality entitled to be protected on his return journey.

Doctors have and still do play God much of the time. Visit any palliative care unit.

Going to the doctor today could kill you.

As if going to the doctor in 2020 can't kill you still. Try any major hospital.

The thing is, in the 1800s going to the doctor meant you were MORE LIKELY to die. though deaths in modern day medicine still happen often, medicine has advanced a lot. In the 1800s, you were more likely to die in surgery than if you went without it, now it’s the opposite.

Not much has changed.

"Dr. Death" was a saint 😅👍

Learning about history is so interesting. ‘He who doesn’t know history, is bound to repeat it.’

Lmao in the 21st century going to the doctor can still kill you.
