Did you know that Fungus is a germ? But
despite this fact, it's not dangerous inside of healthy people. Germs
are possibly one of the biggest health issues nowadays. There are
four types of germs: bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. Some of
them are bad, but some are good bacteria that can live in your
intestines. Germs are on everything that we touch, and when we touch
them they get inside our body. Once they get inside our body, they
get inside our cells and finally reproduce making us sick.
Some ways to prevent sickness are:
- Wash hands with warm water and soap often
- Cover your nose or mouth when you cough or sneeze
- Get immunizations
- Don't share drinks or food, especially with sick people!
