Wait, why do you think distancing won't slow transmission of infections that spread by surface contact? If you are sick and don't sneeze on a stair railing because you aren't near the stair railing, then you very likely have less transmission. Same with masks, if the material is captured in a mask then it isn't sitting somewhere else waiting to be picked up.
