I will take the risk if it means I can be comfortable and enjoy my day more.

Its like hyochondria with this stuff... like sure, if you never shake hands, wear a mask all the time, and wash your hands obsessively you will be at a marginally less risk.. but there comes a point where its just not worth the tradeoff.
