their refusal to listen to midwives
That wasn’t the point:
Vienna hospital hat two maternity wards: One with medical students and one where midwives were educated. The maternity ward with the medical students had significantly higher death rates among mothers and babies than the one with the midwives.
After observing that an assistant died of sepsis after cutting himself with a scalpel while carrying out an autopsy, Semmeleweis supposed that the hands of the medical students, who switched between autopsy of corpses and the maternity ward were contaminated with “ptomaine” while the midwives weren’t as they didn’t perform autopsies. This “ptomaine” did not wash off by simply using water and soap, which the students used (if they washed their hands at all). Subsequently, he advised his students to wash their hand with chlorine after performing autopsies. As a result, the death rate in his maternity ward decreased significantly. - Comment on "You are like little baby! Dead little baby. I see a lot of those too." (Ironlily) 1 week ago:

George Albert Frost was an American 19th century landscape painter who accompanied the construction of the San Francisco–Moscow telegraph line. Probably he liked his stay in Russia/Siberia and was sad when he had to go back to the US.
