The Germ theory of disease, developed in the 1860s and 1870s by Louis Pasteur, states that tiny living beings are the cause of infectious diseases. The theory was developed to explain puerperal fever, or Child bed fever.
Germ theory was developed in a social, cultural, and economic milieu increasingly centered on the values of mass production, mass consumption, standardization, and efficiency, all of which were compatible with germ theory science and popularization.he theory was developed, proved, and popularized in Europe and North America between about 1850 and 1920. Because its implications were so different from the centuriesâold humoral theory, germ theory revolutionized the theory and practice of medicine and the understanding of disease.
