As a junior obstetrician in Vienna in 1847, Semmelweis discovered the cause of puerperal fever and introduced a method for its prevention. Although his findings were hailed by some as comparable to Jenner's introduction of vaccination, for various reasons his ideas failed to gain general acceptance until after his death.
1847年,作为维也纳一名年轻的产科医生,塞麦尔维斯发现了产褥热的病因,并引入了一种预防方法。尽管他的发现被一些人誉为可与詹纳引入疫苗接种相媲美,但由于种种原因,他的观点直到他去世后才得到普遍认可。
