No chance given that soap and water works fine.

The problem will be OTHER people washing their hands. It's little point
you washing your hands in a pub/restaurant/works toilet if the first thing
you touch is the handle of the door leading out of the toilet

That’s trivially avoidable by using your foot to open the
door or a sheet of the paper towel for the door etc.

Personally I'd avoid pubs and restaurants
if there are any infected in my town.

Or use disposable gloves if you can get them.

and others haven't washed their hands.

Think about all that hard surfaced money you touch after being in contact
with the paper or cloth snot rag residing in the same trouser pocket of
the people shopping before you.

I hardly ever use trolleys or baskets when shopping and
its easy to take your own reusable bag and wash it after use.

Rolls of bog paper could be selling on eBay for 100's of pounds,

Now that the local supermarket shelves have been stripped of bog paper one
of little local convenience stores near me has filled the front window
with packs of toilet roll, albeit with a premium price.

I did have a tour of the supermarkets on Saturday and did fine that
Woolworths and Aldi had none, but the other normal supermarkets
still had some. Havent tried the local convenience stores. This is in a
town which so far hasn’t seen any positives at all.
