my office practice to get our daily face mask from a central person. my concern is that is this practice safe?
does covid transmit through hand? if the guy (by the way from kedah which is current booming cluster) get covid then will the whole office get because he handled all mask supply to ppl and they breath in directly from the face mask?

depends on his personal hygiene, if he doesnt sanitise his hands before distributing the whole box gets contaminated.

Using glove to handle face mask would be a better idea to prevent cross contamination when distributing face mask

It is said that shipping boxes can only contain covid if any up to 24 hours. https://www.webmd.com/lung/how-long-covid-1...ves-on-surfacesIf you're that paranoid, might as well ask the procurement team to provide hand sanitizers to the courier/ wipe the immediate mask boxes with alcohol wipes before use/handing .

Yes if safety precautions taken.(like glove wearing and temperature check and shits) 2. Yes. Hand to mouths, eye, nose. 3. Yes if that person infected and didn't take any safely precautions.

My company has 145 staff in the office who has been taking masks from 1 PIC. So far none of us have gotten infected. I think it should be OK in your case as well.

Actually, if you feel something can be improved, you can always raise this up nicely to the concerned department or person - safety officer for example.
