They often produce
toxins. Some directly
damage cells.

Childbed fever is caused by doctors carrying
an infectious agent on their hands.
If doctors wash their hands prior to delivery,
less women die.
Other doctors are unwilling to believe that
something they cannot see could cause
disease.
Other doctors are also unwilling to
acknowledge that they might be
responsible.
