The Origins of Germophobia

Germophobia, or the fear of germs, has gained significant attention in recent years. With constant exposure to news headlines about outbreaks and epidemics, it's no wonder that some individuals have become obsessed with cleanliness. But where did this fear originate?

Historically, people have always been aware of the existence of germs, even if they couldn't see them. However, it was not until the pioneering work of Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch in the late 19th century that the world truly understood the impact of these tiny organisms on our health.
