40、y in the nineteenth century. He worked in a hospital for mothers with new babies. At that time, because hospitals were very dirty places, new mothers often fell sick with fever, and often died. Semmelweis was very unhappy about this, so he examined practices in his hospital carfully to try to find a
41、 way to stop the mothers from getting sick. Eventually, he figured out a simple way to stop fever he told his colleagues to wash their hands! It sounds unbelievable to us today, but at that time people did not understand how important it was to wash their hands to stop diseases. Tragically, although Semmelweiss method was very effective and saved the lives of many young mothers at his hospital, doctors across Europe refused to believe him. They kept examining mothers without washing their hands, so mothers kept dying.
