The worry about germs is part of your OCD and you should get treated. Visit this site for information and talk to your doctor: https://iocdf.org/about-ocd/ocd-treatment/ Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.

Be careful, wipe everything down with alcohol wipes, wear a mask and socially distance. Covid is still a risk and if you are too concerned postpone the trip until things settle down.
