Update: 2024-05-05
Description
Fleming’s discovery of Penicillin wasn’t enough. He couldn’t purify it in anywhere near the quantities needed to treat millions of wounded soldiers during World War 2.

It took a collaboration between Fleming, Florey, and Chain, spanning across 16 years and multiple continents to make enough penicillin and save allied troops leading up to D-day.
