The word microbe is simply a fancy way of saying "germ" otherwise known as bacteria. There are hundreds of thousands of different types of bacteria, though not all types cause illness in humans. A common bacteria that does cause illness is Streptococcus aka "Strep". Most people have had or known someone that has had a strep infection of the throat "strep throat" Symptoms include sore throat, difficulty swallowing, fever and general feeling of illness (tired, achy etc)
Like most illnesses caused by bacteria or viruses, "first cases" would not have been documented. Even today, physicians often only become aware of a new germ that infects humans by recognizing patterns of illness within a region, state, country or countries. Therefore, the first person to become ill with strep throat is an unknown. More likely, many people had been becoming ill for quite some time, until a physician-researcher or laboratory expert was able to isolate the bacteria that causes strep.
in some vulnerable children, strep antibodies attack a certain part of the brain. Antibodies are cells that the body produces to fight specific diseases. That attack results in the development of excessive washing or germ phobias
the most common type is mold. only a lot of it though

The lab will identify which germ is causing your sore throat and they will do further tests to tell your doctor which antibiotics will work the best in treating the infection.
