Wood's apron suggests his commitment to maintaining cleanliness and hygiene while handling this groundbreaking invention. As he carefully purifies each batch of vaccine, one can sense his determination to combat disease and improve public health. This photograph serves as a reminder of how far medicine has come since then, thanks to pioneers like Captain John R. Wood who dedicated their lives to finding solutions for deadly diseases such as pneumonia.
