As we know how cold and flu viruses can spread like worldwide wildfire, and how mysterious diseases can come out of seemlingly nowhere and become epidemic, and as the problem of antibiotic resistence increases, it is simply smart to have hygenic habits. For Christ's sake, if you want make your odds better, keep your fucking hands off your face and motherfucking out of your mouth. Somepeople are crazy and suck on their fingers at leisure, or bite their nails as though following some ancient genetic programming from before clippers were invented, or lick their fingers when eating or turning pages or picking flat items up. Others share items that were handled or were in contact with other people's mucous membranes. Others finger strangers in disco shitters.

But the more germs you are casually exposed to, the stronger your immune system is. People who work in sterile environments such as hospitals often develop allergies to common things.

Not exactly. First, you have to survive the germ. It's all dandy if you were the survivor, but if you were dead then you personally do not benefit. Nature is ruthless and will happily have many people die. You need to think back to before we had vaccines and antibiotics. Consider the multiple plagues and more recently the polio and the fears of containing the next outbreak of some tropical horror. Also, I have read that exposure to parasitic worms can have benefit against allergic misfire more than anything, as the histamine response is a very mechanical attempt by the body to be rid of threats that antibodies do not get involved with.
