A 19th century tone discusses Pasteur and the rise of bacterial therapeutics. It notes Pasteur’s method curing diseases from beer and wine fermentation, leading to Lister, Koch, and others, and suggests skepticism fades when facing potential cures for rables, typhoid, cholera, malaria, yellow fever, diphtheria, and bubonic plague. It ends by tying to Metalnikon's butterfly larva proposal as a possible future cure.

Tobacco not a disinfectant say University of Howe tests
Professor Puntont of the University of Howe reports experiments on tobacco as a disinfectant for germ-laden paper.

Tuberculosis claims by tobacco users remain unsupported and smoke did not neutralize most microbes.
