Man being sick in gutter in town centre, OCD spiralling out of control

A man was sick near me up town today, with projectile vomiting. I crossed the road very quickly. Now my OCD and contamination fears are getting out of control and I am worried in case I have inhaled the germs. Any advice on how to eradicate the image of the man being sick from  my mind would be much appreciated.

  • Thanks Paull. He did not cough or sneeze and contact was extremely minimal. I was about to cross the road and suddenly heard a splashing sound. I turned round to see a man being sick in the gutter, so I quickly crossed the road and heard him being sick again. It was outside, not in an enclosed space, and it might not have been contagious anyway, at least I hope not!. But your words of wisdom are reassuring.
