                        1. His success spurred on Louis Pasteur and they developed a rivalry
                          1. Inspired new generation of scientists to continue identifying germs and creating vaccines
                            1. Rivalry partly due to war that France lost to Germany (1870-1)
                              1. Advancements were faster as the governments gave the men money to beat the other country to the discovery
                                1. Koch got funding first and his own team
                                  1. French retaliated and gave Pasteur funding to keep up
                              2. Preventatives greatly improved but not treatments

                                        1. Spontaneous Generation - belief that germs appeared because someone was ill, that being ill was the cause
                                        2. Germ Theory
                                          1. Approached by wine producer (1857)
                                            1. Why is beetroot alcohol going sour?
                                              1. Pasteur concluded that it was germs
                                              2. Killed bacteria by gently heating liquid
                                                1. Worked with beer and milk

                                                    1. Germs can't infect what they can't reach so spontaneous generation was incorrect
                                                      1. Published Germ Theory in 1861

                                                    3. Lacked credibility
                                                      1. No one believed that something as small as a germ could affect something as large as a human
                                                        1. Experiments were limited
                                                        2. Vaccines
                                                          1. Discovered how they actually work and could be developed for different diseases

                                                                1. Created rabies vaccine which was a major breakthrough that people from all over Europe came for
