There is growing evidence that the gut microbiome, via the so-called "gut-brain axis," is equally vital for both our physical and mental wellness. Researchers found that these bacteria can transmit interpersonally, for example by touch.
Despite the fact that social relationships are crucial for the health and well-being of social animals like humans and other primates, there is mounting evidence that the gut microbiome, via the so-called "gut-brain axis," is equally important for both our physical and mental wellbeing. Also, this bacteria can spread socially, for instance through touch.

Arizona [US], February 8 (ANI): Hurricane Maria slammed into Puerto Rico in 2017. It left in its wake, the largest catastrophe in the history of the island.
