A) Nominate him for the first Nobel Prize in Medicine B) Made him chief of Obstetrics in Vienna at only 29 C) Ridicule him for suggesting upper-class physicians had dirty hands D) Institute handwashing between patients, ushering in the era of antiseptic care in medicine Listener Questions (43:30) – In a previous show, your guest talked about weight loss myths and promoted a low-carb, high-fat diet.
