Influenza, for one. Flu pandemics can kill thousands, or even millions. There are lots of others, of course - e coli, bacterial meningitis, strep, staph, etc.

The flu virus survices on dry skin for about 5 minuntes, hard sufaces like doorknobs are far more dangerous. E-coli also doesn’t reside and thrive on skin.
