Children's Book
Shogakukan Gakushu Manga Jinbutsukan : Japanese anti-infectious disease measures have been taken since the days of Shibasaburo! A Kitasato Shibasaburo who appears in the textbooks of social studies at elementary schools. I've heard of his name, but don't really know what's great about him? That's because Shibasaburo's achievements are so diverse and there are so many technical terms that he is not familiar with. In order to express his achievements in a single word, he found a weapon to fight "invisible enemies" such as germs and viruses. In the Meiji Period, the cause of the disease was not yet well understood, and even the presence of germs and viruses was not well known. In such an age, Shibasaburo invented a therapy for "tetanus", a troublesome disease. In the era of "serotherapy", which was later improved to become a vaccine. Because of this achievement, Shibasaburo was selected for the first Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. He knew well about the existence of germs, so he spread various anti-infectious disease measures such as hand-washing, disinfection, and wearing a mask. It is used in the daily measures we are implementing in the face of the novel coronavirus. [Editor's Recommendation] In 2024, 10,000 yen bills and other bills will be renewed! Along with Tsuda Umeko on the new 5000 yen bill and Eichi SHIBUSAWA on the new 10,000 yen bill, Kitasato Shibasaburo will be employed on the new 1,000 yen bill. By the way, he was actually working at Shibasaburo's research institute when he was young. Maybe he was greatly influenced by Shibasaburo? Considering that, I think I have to feel the drama about the change of the "face" of the old and new 1,000 yen bills. Tsuda Umeko and Eichi SHIBUSAWA are also appearing in the same series of study manga called "Jinbutsukan", so please take a look at the three new Reiwa bills! Hideyo Noguchi
