Does anyone know how likely

Question

It is to contract cold sore virus hsv 1 through objects like door knobs things other people have touched? Eg if infected person touches handle then I touch it then I hold my baby ect

Answer

Thats not a thing. You would have to have direct contact with their mouth

Answer

The virus can only survive 10 seconds when not on the host (person with sores)
So you’re ok. I would personally not share drinks/utensils.

Answer

HSV doesn’t live long at all outside the body so it isn’t possible to contract from inanimate objects .
