One of my main concerns is food prepared or handled by people who might be sick.

I can wash my hands and certain food, but other food that I eat (like a sandwich, bread, all sorts of prepared food) can't be washed by me before I eat it.

If someone sick coughed on their hands and then made that food for me, I'm screwed.

Am unsure how much food can spread covid. But, one way to prepare is to take stock of your eating, and minimize prepared food.

Eg pack sandwiches in a lunchbox rather than buy one.

You perhaps can’t eliminate it all. But this is a risk reduction game, rather than a perfection game. Taking low impact precautions goes a long way.
