That's what science is. Everything I just said is all you need to know. That's the scientific method. And that didn't exist. That is a man-made creation. Very important to understand that. It's a brilliant creation. I would argue it is the single most important creation that allows us to exist today. It allowed us to figure out that washing your hands was a way to prevent spreading disease.

It allowed us to figure out that there were organisms that we can't see with our naked eye, like bacteria and viruses, that are killing us. It allowed us to create medications to treat those things. So just on the basis of those few things I said, we basically doubled human lifespan.

just by figuring out how sanitation, addressing infant and mother mortality, treating infections, you know, all of these things had a huge difference. That is what I call medicine 2.0.
