Introducing Wonder druggers

Wonder druggers

Death went into the White House when Willie Lincoln died. Today’s antibiotics would have saved the lad’s life. Coming closer, death again entered the White House when Calvin Coolidge Jr. developed an infection. A shot of sulfa might have healed him in a week. With our wonder drugs even President McKinley might have been spared despite an assassin’s bullet, and it’s quite likely that Harding’s pneumonia would have responded to penicillin. So, today’s humblest sufferer is better off than yesterday’s most important patient.

As recently as the horse and buggy era, appendicitis was known as a boil in the belly, and about the only prescription for what they called “consumption”, was a trip to a high dry climate. Both diphtheria and pneumonia were considered fatal, but today medical science controls them quickly. Such are the marvels of the antibiotics, wonder drugs . . . and polio vaccine. The enigmas of life within the human cell are being solved and a cancer cure might be as close as the next test tube.

Despite all these medical marvels, doctors consider the most difficult cases are still trying to get women past forty!
