15 Answers
Exposure to germs in childhood is to help strengthen the immune system and protect children from developing allergies. So if everything is now clean and germ free how will they build up their immune system? Is this another pandamic coming down the line?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I read it quite thoroughly, spicerack. In particular, the sentence about "Infectious diseases continue to exert a heavy health toll. Preventing pandemics and reducing antibiotic resistance are global priorities, and hygiene is a cornerstone of containing these threats." -- which is, perhaps, a little out of place in an encyclopedia, but more or less makes the point.
I was going to write a longer post, but didn't have the energy. In any case, history should teach us that diseases flourish when hygiene standards are poor or dismal, and it therefore seems odd to suggest that a drive towards greater cleanliness*, etc, should increase the risk of a pandemic spreading.
*Another point the link makes clear is that "clean and germ-free" is a little misleading anyway: "The idea that homes can be made “sterile” through excessive cleanliness is implausible...".

yeah or no
there was a letter in the Times from a paed ( baby doctor) with exactly this in mind
we have cleaned up society that children are now underexposed ..... etc
and my first response was that crazies are obviously not limitied to people on AB. He - the good doctor - must have missed the lecture at med sch on child mortality from infection in the C19
we are all entitled to our view
BUT as the Fiji showed ( no measles vacc ( dangerous see ) and then measles = 160 dead babies )
people can give advice that the less intelligent may follow
( Andrew wakeford ex doctor and author of the measles vacc disaster ) commented of Fiji - the parents decided not to vaccinate their children - nothing to do with me
heavens that is a senior doctor taking responsibility for his advice !
