Subsequent to the acceptance of Pasteur's germ theory was when sanitary practices were adopted by the medical industry, and in America circumcision became the practice for all males born in hospitals unless a parent objected.

I suppose Americans were quite filthy in the 19th Century. Now with modern sanitation, that's no longer an issue. It's an outdated practice and America is an outlier in the West. (Not including Israel)
