Alexander Fleming lived from 1881 to 1955, a period marked by significant historical events, including both World Wars. The First World War (1914-1918) saw widespread global conflict and advancements in medical practices, while the Second World War (1939-1945) further accelerated medical research due to the urgent need for treatments. Additionally, Fleming's discovery of penicillin in 1928 revolutionized medicine and significantly impacted the treatment of bacterial infections during and after the wars. The interwar period and post-war era also saw the rise of the modern welfare state and advancements in technology and science.
