Indeed by disinfecting healthy skin, the antiseptic will kill the resident flora (good bacteria of our skin), and during an infection, our good bacteria having been killed by the antiseptic, are no longer present for us Defend against the transitional flora (the Mauvaaaaais bacteria). Use disinfectant only if you have a sign of infection, but you will tell me what are they?
