For years Canadians have been warned to NOT over disinfect their homes etc. We need ‘germs’ to keep our immune system strong and able to fight invading bacteria.
With sanitation sprays on every counter in schools, businesses, stores of all kinds AND in homes, the fight to kill the corona virus is intense. Every facility where there are people inside have hand sanitizer on the spot. And homes have wipes, sprays and all kinds of disinfectants being used constantly.
I remember a piece of advice from a doctor saying, “Moms. Don’t overkill the germ attack on your children. Their immunity strength depends on their exposure to germs that increases their ability to fight diseases. Let them get dirty. It’s good for them.”
Because of the onslaught of disinfectants, will our immunity in our populations become compromised? Has this ever been addressed? Is this message no longer true?
