Dubs Bad Hygiene

Help turning off hygiene health penalties?
Hello! I'm a bit of a mod newbie and I think I'm probably overlooking something obvious here, but can't for the life of me figure it out. I wanted to use this mod just for the heating and cooling systems, so I went into the mod options and turned off all of the bathroom/shower needs for everyone. My colonists are no longer getting the mood debuffs for needing to shower and use the bathroom, but they still have a debuff under the health tab for "bad hygiene (moderate)," which is affecting food poisoning chance and social interaction.

Is there a way to turn this off somehow? Or do I either have to just live with the health debuffs or go all-in on the hygiene aspects of the mod to get rid of it? I've tried reloading the game after changing the options and that hasn't helped. Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

what you will probably need to do is turn hygiene back on, have them all wash and wait for the debuffs to wear off and then disable hygiene again, i need to put in an extra check on that toggle to clear all hygiene hediffs

That worked, thank you so much! I didn't actually end up needing to have them wash -- I built a basic shower setup and then turned on the shower need and reloaded the game. I was about to start forcing all of my colonists to shower but noticed that the health debuff was already gone! I guess just toggling the need on again did it.

Looking forward to using this mod in full in a future game, just didn't want to do it in my current save. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the cooling system! Having one integrated system instead of a million different individual ACs is such a relief, and I'm sure I'll feel the same about the heating once I get to it.
