Before antibiotics came into use during the second world war people were dying of bacterial infections much more often than today. The first person they tested antibiotics on had scratched his face on a rose in his garden. His condition had deteriorated and he was expected to die. The penicillin did wonders and it looked like he was going to recover. Unfortunatley they ran out and he ended up dying.
