Does Everything Have Germs?

Doesn't everything have germs? Doe Germs have germs? And do people in Bubbles have germs?

Answer:
"Germs" is not a scientific word, so we should first define it. Most people use it to define disease causing microorganisms. However, when cleaning product commercials, news stories et al. do their scare tactic reports on "X number of germs found on this surface", they're referring to all bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Some of these are actually helpful, most of them do not affect us one way or the other. Using the TV definition, yes, germs are everywhere, on everything you can see.

Germs do have germs, bacteriophages, for an example are viruses that attack bacteria. They're what microbiologists first studied, as it's easy to grow a lot of bacteria, and no issues with setting a virus loose on them. Also, germs often compete for resources, and have developed attacks to kill other species.

People in bubbles will still have bacteria in their intestines. We could not survive without these, they help us digest and absorb nutrients from food. Bubbles would prevent bacteria from growing on the skin or getting in the respiratory tract.
not me ,I'm germ free
without germs we couldn't survive
Yes, everyone and everything on earth has germs. Every human is made up of more bacteria cells than human cells. Without bacteria humans couldn't digest food. Without bacteria humans couldn't make waste. Without bacteria, humans wouldn't be able to kill harmful bacteria as effectively.
Humans even require a certain kind of e.coli to survive.
well anywher ther is an ecosystem (oxygen moisture warmth etc) germs arent bad and if ther were none our immune systems wudnt be able to cope with worse diseases and illneses.

i, to be honest, have never seen a person in a bubble...and if it was a sick bubble or a wee bubble then ther wud certainly be germs....i dont thin germs have germs but im sure they have little things on them or just atoms..interestin topic thou i was interested wen i was a child and it is quite cool stuff
