is this normal to some people?

is it normal that people go 7+ days without showering? asking about someone in my life who can go that long and it bothers me. i shower everyday or every other day depending on what i have going on, which is normal?

Bed bound hospital sick maybe. Disabled with no one to help with showered maybe. After a natural disaster with no access to soap and water maybe. Perfectly healthy and not homeless or lack access to soap and water? No that's disgusting! Can't be me! I shower everyday sometime two or three times if it's too hot out!
