"In 1928, a chance event in Alexander Fleming's London laboratory changed the course of medicine. However, the purification and first clinical use of penicillin would take more than a decade. Unprecedented United States/Great Britain cooperation to produce penicillin was incredibly successful by 1943."

In the late 1930's, sulpha drugs were still the most commonly used drugs for infections...I myself was, in 1939, treated with a sulfa drug for a foot infection even though penicillin might have been available then...It took years for even a remarkable drug like penicillin to be commonly used....IMO Vascepa will be commonly used in the future....perhaps not like penicillin, but possibly like statins.
