Germs: harmful or benign?

Hi,
I'm having an argument with a fellow who eats an lacto-vegetarian diet, who believes that after one brushes their teeth they should use a mouthwash to not only make one's breath smell fresh but also kill germs.

He washes all his dishes, utensils, and cookware with dishsoap (Seventh Generation Dishwashing Detergent).

And when he gets sick he takes prescribed medicine and antibiotics, if need be.

Is he correct?

Should we kill germs or learn to live with them?

Thank you, very much.

Bruce
