Friends and outsiders, Paul DeKruif and Andre Gratia in 1924 settled the phage debate in favor of viruses. DeKruif helped Sinclair Lewish write 1925 novel 'Arroswmith.' Andre Gratia served as composite model for Dr. Arrowsmith.
Paul deKruif's 1948 communication with friend and colleague André Gratia. Both went against established microbiology views. DeKruif was Sinclair Lewis's collaborator for 1925 popular science novel 'Arrowsmith.' Andre Gratia had served as a composite model for 'Arrowsmith.'

Monsieur Mathieu Lefèvre, @MathieuMlefevre, Nous attendons que vous preniez position contre l’article 17, recul en faveur des élevages intensifs relevant pourtant de votre Ministère. Nous les animaux, nous attendons patiement aussi. Je vous remercie.
We have had the birth control pill since the 1960s. May we soon have nonsurgical, easy-to use, inexpensive dog and cat birth control to help our ~900 million strays. ACCD Alliance for Contraception (nonsurgical) in Cats and Dogs. Photo Belgium farm.
Gustave Gratia 1855-1932, born in Virton, Belgium, was a veterinarian and human doctor. In 1903 he challenged Robert Koch's 1901 declaration that dairy milk need not be Pasteurized to prevent Tuberculosis.

When a young Andre Gratia starts to believe his own side of the 1920s Twort/d'Herelle bacteriophage Phage debate "sa foi en la théorie de son maître a été ébranlée." p. 620 it is possible that it was at this moment that his faith in his master's theory, Jules Bordet, was shaken

Gustave Gratia, 1855-1932, was the first to demonstrate that, contrary to Robert Koch, the bovine form of the Tuberculosis microbe is transmissible to humans and is mainly responsible for bone Tuberculosis from dairy milk consumption.
