Episode Synopsis

Imagine going to  the World's Fair to marvel at babies--babies in incubators doing baby stuff.  At one point in time this was the only answer to help care for premature infants.  Part side show, part unexpectedly decent medicine, Couney's Infantorium paved the way for more modern practices in neonatal care.  Support the show-----PHPod Merch Store (CLOSED)-----Podcast Linktree (social media links / reviews / ratings)-----#medicine #medicalhistory #history #historypodcast
