Indeed:
*- herpes labialis : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herpes_labialis
*- hepatitis : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatitis

are the most obvious but certainly not the only ones.

i think it's possible because the palm of your hand carries millions of viruses

There's always a risk. You're at risk just breathing the air.

It is possible to catch all sorts because people are filthy animals and I try to have as little contact as possible.

Your skin too has a few million bacteries /sq inch:
-----QUOTE:

"The skin supports its own ecosystems of microorganisms, including yeasts and bacteria, which cannot be removed by any amount of cleaning. Estimates place the number of individual bacteria on the surface of one square inch (6.5 square cm) of human skin at 50 million, though this figure varies greatly over the average 20 square feet (1.9 m2) of human skin. Oily surfaces, such as the face, may contain over 500 million bacteria per square inch (6.5 cm²). Despite these vast quantities, all of the bacteria found on the skin's surface would fit into a volume the size of a pea.[12] In general, the microorganisms keep one another in check and are part of a healthy skin. When the balance is disturbed, there may be an overgrowth and infection, such as when antibiotics kill microbes, resulting in an overgrowth of yeast.

Gasoline and a match may help.
