24. Dr. Ehrlich’s Magic Bullet (1940)
Dr. Ehrlich’s Magic Bullet is the true story of a doctor who considered it was not immoral to search for a drug that would cure syphilis.
Having been infected by tuberculosis, Dr. Ehrlich travelled to Egypt for recovery and relief, where he began to discover the properties of the human body with regard to immunity.
The discovery helped Ehrlich and colleague Dr. von Behring to pioneer treatments for various other diseases – including fighting a diphtheria epidemic that is killing off many children in the country.
