Germs are found on almost every surface we come in contact with, which makes it incredibly common for our bodies to be exposed to them. But why are some of these germs relatively harmless, while others can be fatal? Yannay Khaikan and Nicole Mideo explore this question by examining germs varying modes of transmission.

the video didnt mention the fact that by being exposed to bacteria and viruses makes your body produce anti bodies. eating healthy has zero effects on our immune system because antibodies are produced from the stimuli of viruses. sometimes viruses can kill other viruses meanwhile others can pass unnoticed from your immune system and become part of your genetic genome. after all its no coincide our dna is 10% viral and our genetic genome is at least 60 to 80 percent viral. if we really want to be healthy its necessary that we expose our bodies to harmful substances so that our bodies can produce anti bodies over a course of time and then see what the idea of the strongest survive really means. dont be scared of being sick, enjoy it and slowly and maturely your body will become the equivalent of the united states military killing all germs and taking them directly to your colon for a cool down and then get rid of them

Hm, but I don't see that big of a difference with trying to eradicate them. If you try to eradicate them, there will be evolutionary pressures to be mild enough so that we don't care to treat it, or strong enough to survive the antibiotics. Similarly, if we stay at home and protect against the known modes of transmission, there will be evolutionary pressures to be mild enough so that we don't care and don't stay home, and to evolve cleverer and more robust ways of transmission that we didn't account for. Both this innovative form of transmission, and the increased resistance to antibiotics are equally undesirable. I guess the difference may probably come in the former treat being harder to evolve than the later, and/or being easier to treat.

Wait if I drink out of a cup when I was sick and didn't wash it. and when I wasn't sick and drank out of the cup that still wasn't wash. Would I Get Sick Again?
