In early 1945, two Manhattan doctors had dueling visions of the possible world ahead.
The prominent one, Foster Kennedy , wanted to kill all babies with developmental issues.
The unknown other, Henry Dawson, wanted all babies in the world to have access to cheap, abundant (Public Domain) penicillin.
By the end of 1945, the unknown Dawson was dead but - perhaps surprisingly - his idea lived on after him.
