doging viruses and bacteria?

Question

is there a way that you can dodge viruses and bacteria

Answer 1

You can try to always keep your hands clean. Train yourself not to put your hands on your face, unless you've JUST washed them.

Of course, exchange of any and all bodily fluids is out. That means no kissing, let alone no sex.

And, of course, the air we breathe is just full of viruses and bacteria (albeit short lived, but long enough to infect you) so you're going to have to start wearing a surgical type mask outside all the time.

And then the air inside our homes, being a closed environment, is actually worse for our health than the air outside. So to make it halfway breathable, we will have to install air purification units (enough to handle the full cubic volume) with heppa filters. And make sure we change those filters every month. They aren't cheap, but so what, this is our health, right?

We'll have to replace our whole wardrobe with clothes made from microfibres. This material is so tightly woven that nothing can penetrate the weaving, not even dirt. Making them easily washable. And we're going to have to get ourselves used to changing our clothes at least four times every day, to get all those germs we've exposed our clothes to, away from our skins.

And speaking of skins, the germs we have picked up are on us too, right? So we're going to have to shower each of those four times that we change our clothes......

Now I can understand why people get phobic about things like this!

Answer 2

Not all bacteria is bad. An example: You need to maintain your "normal flora" in your gut to help digest food and to fight off the bacteria that can cause infection. A lot of people get diarrhea has a result of taking antibiotics - and that is 'cause all the normal bacterial flora is killed. Then it is possible to get an infection with yeast or other opportunistic organism like Clostridium difficile.
Someday what we learn from viruses may be used as gene therapy for people with genetic disorders like Cystic Fibrosis.

Answer 3

Wash your hands frequently using warm soap and water for at least 15 seconds. Clean common use objects such as keyboards, phones, etc. with alcohol wipes to reduce the amount of bacteria.

Answer 4

Wash your hands for 15 seconds with soap and water after you use the washroom.
Don't share cigarettes, drinks, etc.
Clean your bathroom and kitchen with a mixture of bleach and water.
Safer sex (condoms).

Answer 5

no. if you don't then you'll become real sick. you see, the flu is made up of bacteria, and when you get it your immune system tries to fight it. when it wins, it becomes immune to that germ/ bacteria and you therefore become stronger. your body constantly needs new bacteria to fight n a daily basis cos if it doesn't get that daily dose, you'll end up shrivelling away into nothingness.
just a thought, right?

Answer 6

You live with them both inside you and outside you. Some of the same organisms in you make you ill if your resistance gets weak.
