"Germaphobia" is linked in ways to paranoia and compulsive disorders. This paired with the biometrics thing, I'd recommend having a chat with someone just to make sure there isn't an underlying disorder.

Have watched a family member go from "that's a bit weird" to debilitating paranoia over 15 years. It started with compulsive behaviours around personal health and security of personal devices that made little sense to anyone else.
