Concerns and fears about being ill or contaminated, or infecting others can involve considerable distress as well as excessive washing, cleaning and avoiding everyday situations perceived to be dangerous.

With the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown measures there are reports of some distressful contamination fears in young people. It is common for those with such fears to seek reassurance and help from carers, relatives and friends. Carers offer front-line support and help but can also aggravate the situation by offering considerable assistance and over-assurance which can be counterproductive in the long-term.
