Infections were a big killer before antibiotics. We have vaccination these days because of the horrible things that used to happen without them. Just having clean warm water and soap readily available was a luxury back then.
I’ve never really gotten infections in my life. About 5 years ago, I finally got an insect bite that became infected and it wouldn’t resolve on its own. Had to take a course of antibiotics to resolve it.
Crazy to think that a few centuries ago, that would’ve meant they’d have to cut off my arm or I’d die as a result of that.
