You are basically dismissing my firsthand experience. Maybe that's not your intent, but you start off It seems really unlikely that vacuuming is worse for your health than not vacuuming. I'm telling you from firsthand experience that I don't have a lot of dust and my health is better these days and I don't own a vacuum. I'm not asking you to give up your vacuum. If you want citations supporting the idea that vacuums can spread germs and particulates, here's one: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3811220/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3811220/ If you want to continue to imply that I'm wrong to choose to live without a vacuum cleaner, I'm done. That's out of bounds for debate. It's a personal choice.
