Product Description
We use the word "germ" to mean many things. We say we have the germ of an idea, meaning we've come up witht he beginning of an idea. But when someone says, "I caught a germ", we instantly know that this means sickness. Germs is the glanket name we use when we refer to bacteria, fungi, microbes, protozoa, viruses, and other disease-causing microorganisms. What all these different types of germs have in common is that they are all very tiny.
