i don’t use my fingertips on public. door knobs, rails, etc. i use knuckles or fist or elbow or whatever. my finger tips are not for public use. started during covid, never got covid. barely ever get sick.
Mine is wear a medical grade mask in public spaces.
It does multiple things.
First it protects you from air borne pathogens like viruses and especially COVID.
Second, if you are confronted or people get mad at you for wearing one, it immediately let’s you know what kind of people are around. If they’re the type that will get mad at you for wearing a mask, it’s definitely a place to leave and avoid in the future. A mask is a great way to weed people out in public.
My wife has lifelong lung problems now and we can’t risk any infections. So wearing a mask is necessary for me … and at this point in my life, it’s normal now and I find that it’s normal for most people. 90% of the people that see me in a mask notice but immediately understand and don’t make an issue of it. It’s 10% of the loudest idiots that make it a problem and a mask is a great way to unmask them (pun intended)

I use my knuckles for pretty much any object that is public. If I must pull a door handle I use my pinkie (or my foot if no one’s looking).
sometimes i’ll use the bottom of my shirt as a glove until i can use my foot to swoop.
Nope, knuckle sandwich to the face!
It’s good for your health, buddy!

Long sleeve shirts ftw!
Until out of habit you rub your eye with your knuckle. Doh!
