Just a thought — the trick might be trying to be less of a germaphobe to build up your immune system (not medical advice).

Also not medical advice, but since I stopped being a germaphobe in 2016, I haven't gotten sick. Maybe it has to do with being less stressed in general, too.

YMMV :)

So after my daughter was born 6 years ago I had to reduce my germaphobe habits, simply because it's not possible/practicable. Perhaps after a few more years of being around young children I'll build up my immune system...
(not medical advice, but this is my style).
