In a Moment of Vision...

U Trenutku vizije...

It's the winter of 1890.

Zima je godine 1890.

Dr. William Halsted is the chief surgeon at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

Dr Vilijam Halsted je glavni hirurg u bolnici Džons Hopkins.

The scrub nurse under Halsted, a woman named Caroline Hampton,

Sestra pored Halsteda, žena zvana Kerolin Hempton,

begins to develop a severe reaction to the strong disinfectants

počinje da dobija snažnu reakciju na jaka dezinfekcijska sredstva

used to scour her hands and arms before surgery.

sa kojim pere šake i ruke pred operaciju.

Halsted takes an interest in her plight.

Halsted se zainteresovao za njen problem.

In a moment of vision, he asks Goodyear rubber company

U trenutku vizije, pitao je kompaniju za gume Gudjir

to experiment with the production of a pair of thin rubber gloves.

da eksperimentišu sa proizvodnjom para tankih gumenih rukavica.

They fit Caroline, well, like gloves, and her hands begin to recover.

One Kerolin pašu kao, pa, par rukavica i njene ruke počinju da se oporavljaju.

In fact, the gloves are such a success

Zapravo, rukavice su takav uspeh

that the good doctor orders more for his team and for himself.

da dobri doktor naručuje još njih za svoj tim i za sebe.

Iz ovih ranih eksperimenata nastala je

From these early experiments,

a multibillion dollar rubber glove industry is born.

industrija gumenih rukavica vredna milijarde.

And it turns out the doctor didn't just want to protect the nurse's hands.

Ispostavlja se da doktor nije samo želeo da zaštiti ruku medicinske sestre.

He also wanted to take them in holy matrimony.

Takođe je hteo i da je isprosi.

Halsted and Caroline were married

Halsted i Kerolin su se uzeli

just a few months after he gave her that first pair of gloves.

samo nekoliko meseci nakon što joj je dao taj prvi par rukavica.
