Germs are bacteria. Germs are said to make us sick but believe it or not we need them. If you kept germs away from you, you would get really sick when they come near you. Bacteria are vital in maintaining our health. We have good ones in our body all the time (don't want to scare you now!) and it is only when we get bad bacteria that we get sick. Our bodies learn how to fight us these bacteria when we meet them. This makes are immune system stronger and better able to deal with the bacteria the next time we meet them so that it doesn't happen again. You see, if we didn't fight bacteria off all the time they would get to strong for us and then we would be in trouble.
