Ok so here's the thing. Assume the outside is gross. Outside clothes are gross if they're not washed (regardless of if theyre unwashable or just not YET washed). Phone's super gross. Not to mention money. Just wash your hands multiple times throughout the day, at the very least before eating and when you get home. Then, you change and your outside clothes don't get to soil your bed or couch. And try not to touch your face throughout the day.
I genuinely get sick less the more I stick with this.
OR you just accept that everything is gross. No reason to pick out belts in particular. They're not even in the top ten of the grossest things you touch on your average day.
Phone is number 1 contender for "Things never to be looked at under the microscope"
