Breathing and eating unmasked at a restaurant is a much bigger risk for covid than anything to do with hands. Covid is airborne.

Yeah and I don't do it often or unnecessarily but I don't really close myself off all that much. I just use a mask when in an enclosed public space or outside space with inadequate distancing when I don't otherwise need to utilize my pie hole. So im not zero risk by any means but from my anecdotal data of the last 3 or 4 years its amazing how much it helps. Im wondering how long I can go without getting sick.
