Idk who needs to hear this, but some people have body oils that react to the ingredients within various deodorants that makes the smell worse rather than masking it (which might be why some people are adverse to it). Some people who have had poor hygiene in the past have difficult bacteria cultures that won't go away just by soap and water.
Try changing deodorant to antiperspirant. Minimize any perfume or scented products. And if soap isn't working, acne face wash works great (just don't use it every time or it dries you out).
And realize deodorant is to be used after taking a shower, not instead of it
Chlorahexadine to the rescue
Yes Its a real pandemic. This particular bacteria strain has infected my local Comic Books Stores, every CGC Anything, and of course the Anime conventions - they are super-spreader events.
It's truly an enigma.
