In my opinion you have nothing to apologize for. My writing tone can come off as abrasive but that's not intentional, so I do apologize for that. There's tons of stuff I don't fully understand either, especially in the bio fields. Computers are complex, but biological systems are more complex by multiple orders of magnitude. Many of these things we don't yet have a full understanding of and the research methods to elucidate biochemical mechanisms are also complex.
It's also possible that I may be wrong about surface viability. I started out in the pandemic assuming the virus is viable on surfaces but after research has come out I have essentially stopped washing my hands altogether (outside of the normal times I did before).
This is difficult for everyone as we all can have varying levels of understanding and different perspectives. Yet we all have to deal with this in the best ways that we can figure out.
