For thousands of years, many theories have been put forward as to the cause of communicable diseases. 
These theories ranged from the religious to the magical and sometimes quasiscientific, but what they all had in common was that there was no proof for anything.

Learn more about the germ theory of disease and why it took so long to recognize on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
