In France, they kiss between one and four times depending on the region, it's infuriating. I've just decided to not kiss any more. It's a stupid tradition, and it's a great way to catch colds anyway.
Of course not, it's a cultural means of sharing germs that quite literally saves everybody by helping share in the herd immunity.
That was a thing before Covid. Nowadays, ehhh… it's more of a Typhoid Mary thing.
No need to be phobic, it's barely worth worrying about considering your phone probably carries germs too hahaha
