Naturally, it is impossible to remain safely distant and never touch anything that someone else has recently touched.
So the challenge becomes a trade-off between maximizing safety and living your life.
The danger is the risk of becoming complacent.
It would be dangerous thinking to say: "Well I did [such and such] and it didn't result in me getting sick, so that action can be safely repeated."
That is incorrect.
Every instance carries a risk.
Don't let your guard down. Ever.
Even when others do, even when other people around you are acting like there is no risk, that does not mean there is no risk.
Protect yourself, protect others around you.
Together, we can fight this war between all humans on one side, and a virus on the other, and together we can win it.
Those who are being diligent are to be commended.
