99.9% vs 100% that is often seen on anti-bacterial soap/shower gel/shower cream. Can they make us sterile?
Just remember, babies coming out from the you know where are not that clean. Meconium, fishy amniotic fluids, bloods... (actually, those mess are quite sterile... but the sight...)
Despite those horrible sight everything is compensated by the cuteness of the baby.
I have slight ADHD, so I often wander from the topic. Are we that germaphobe. Say if somebody who bathe in anti-bacterial soap but drinks cultured drinks like yoghurt, doesn't these negate each other. (This is actually what my dear cousin did... he is so health conscious that he is easily fooled by advertisement. He even washes his face 3 times daily just to get rid of oily face.)
Hand washing is another issue. Anti-bacterial hand wash are not effective if proper hand washing technique is not applied. Some studies even found out that anti-bacterial hand wash do more harm than good.
So. Are we germaphobe? Yes.
