What is an example of indirect contact that spreads some infectious diseases?

One example of indirect contact that spreads some infectious diseases is touching fomites. Fomites are objects or surfaces that are contaminated with infectious agents and can transmit infection to a person who comes into contact with them. Examples include doorknobs, elevator buttons, countertops, and utensils. If an infected person touches these surfaces, they can leave behind the infectious microorganisms, which can then be transferred to another person who touches the same surface. This is why it is important to wash your hands frequently and avoid touching your face after contact with public surfaces.
