Louis Pasteur found that vaccinations could prevent diseases. He found the vaccine for anthrax and for rabies, and the cure for childbed fever. His rabies vaccine methods were used for close to one hundred years, before another method was found in 1971. Pasteur is most remembered for his sterilization methods known as Pasteurisation, the process of heating foodstuffs in order to kill bacteria.
