Invention: Penicillin

 

Penicillin

Alexander Fleming - discovered in 1928 - called it Penicillin
 
 Before the discovery of penicillin, life was rough.  Many people had lived short lives.  There was no true medicine for the illnesses people had.  When penicillin came around, everyone's lives became healthier.  The expected live span around the world jumped.  There was now medicine!  It could now cure many infections.
This discovery now boosted life for humans.  We can now live longer and not have to worry as much when we get sick, as we have penicillin.  This discovery also led to many other advances in medicine.  These other advances are helping us live a healthy long life.  The world as we knew it became a healthier place.
