“Almost everyone uses anti-bacterial soap...”
Not me, hardly use that crap ever. Don’t wash my hands much either, even when in Third World countries - and never, ever, get sick. Dittos for “Sanitizer”.
I always knew this stuff was a scam (after all, sanitizers and especially lotions interfere with the proper moisturizing function of skin), but I didn’t think these strong chemicals were dangerous - but it makes sense now - I don’t put gasoline on my skin either, because I know it’s dangerous.
Antibodies are like muscles, use them or lose them.
Triclosan and triclocarban do work as advertised, which is remarkable since one would think bacteria would long ago have become tolerant to them. Bath soap that contains it keeps me from getting zits on the rear and other places that embarrass when the zits become sore. But maybe it works since I don’t clean the whole house with triclosan, only myself. Putting it in dish liquid seems overkill; not even the detergent makers say it sanitizes the dishes.
