I think you are not understanding how difficult it is for people with types of phobias about germs and illness.

Imagine being obsessive compulsive about cleanliness and germs, then the pandemic comes along. You would never recover from that experience psychologically.

It would be worse than if someone with ophidiophobia woke up one day and snakes were randomly falling from the sky.

The worst of all though is an infection with no symptoms. Like an invisible prison the germ freak can never escape from.

What is bizarre is we pretend there aren't at least hundreds of thousands of people in the country with these type of phobias.
