Cleanliness fetishes don't make you healthier. Paradoxically, reducing your exposure to a little bit of everyday life cuts down on your antibody-building opportunities, making you weaker and thus more prone to sickness.
In short, you are your own worst enemy and very possibly a first-class loony.

That's where we are hoping to relocate ASAP. One more reason to do so.
