I have a compromised immune system. Germ control is a big part of my life.
I do simple things that are readily available, like get takeout instead of eating at the restaurant and use self checkout as much as possible. I know these strategies are effective. I just don't know how to get past a bunch of people wanting to dismiss it as anecdotal and "That's just your opinion, man!"
Which makes no sense to me given the current state of things. But that's how it tends to go, if people are bothering to be polite. It sometimes is a lot uglier, which makes it hard to bring up such ideas at all.
