This could be one of those puzzles: "Spot All of the Mistakes."
1. glove finger in mouth
2. bare forearm on cart handle
3. phone in gloved hand getting contaminated
4. touching contaminated phone with bare fingers
5. MILLER LITE IN THE CART!!!!!! He's a dead man for sure!

Come on, like he's going to lick the underside of his forearm? lol

Let's say there are virus particles on the shopping cart handle where his arm touched. The guy goes home. He pushes the door to the house open with his arm. He sits on the couch drinking an ice cold Miller Lite. His arm touches the arm rest on the couch. His hand touches the arm rest. He scratches an itch on his nose and inhales a couple virus particles. Now he's infected. His wife gets home. She touches the door with her hand. She rubs her eye. Now she's infected. The dog nudges the guys arm while he's putting in the collar to go out for a walk. The dog runs up to the neighbor's little girl who is playing outside and she pets the dog. The child later eats a sandwich. Now she is infected. She sneezes on her father when saying goodnight. Now he is infected. The father goes to work the next day at an [insert online store] distribution center. He lovingly packages your order of hops after touching his mouth. After unpacking your hops and posting in the "what I got in the mail today" thread, you grab a clean glass -- without even thinking about the fact that you touched the rim -- and you pour a fresh pint of delicious homebrew and take a sip. Now you are infected.

As far-fetched and entertaining that was, it is also totally plausible. Well put.

In other coronavirus news, trying to lick your own elbow is now not only challenging but also ill-advised.
 
The way this strain behaves, it's not at all far fetched but at least you concede it's plausible.
What I said was "totally plausible", I was trying to make the point that even though it may read as far-fetched, every single infection thus far has some variation of this story behind it. Most will never know how they came into contact with the virus, and the truth is often hard to believe.
 
a couple weeks ago, our resort closed until after our planned vacation. last week we got word the time of our connecting flight departure changed & will leave 5 hours before our arrival in Atlanta from Dulles

so, today we officially cancelled our anniversary vacation to Jamaica

there goes our "therapeutic purposes"
