I'm not exactly sure but my guess would be that directly contacting someone would mean communicating with someone (or something) while the other person can hear or see you, or when you are there in person. Indirectly contacting someone would mean you would cause someone (or something) to contact someone (or something.)
direct contact, fomite (indirect contact, object), vector (indirect contact, insect or animal), airborne (droplets, indirect contact)
MRSA is caught by direct contact (and indirect contact) via a break in the skin.
Direct Contact and Indirect Contact
so as you can see when pie2 =1178 the direct contact is the same
Direct transmission of disease is by the direct contact of a diseased person,whereas indirect transmission occurs without the direct contact. For example ;by using anything of diseased person.
A condition transmitted by direct or indirect contact is often referred to as a communicable disease. Examples include influenza, which can spread through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes (direct contact), and norovirus, which can be transmitted through contaminated surfaces or food (indirect contact). Effective hygiene practices, such as handwashing and sanitizing surfaces, are crucial for preventing the spread of these conditions.
Not by direct contact no, because it is in the bag of waters. Through indirect contact, yes.
Indirect: Indirect contact involves contact with a contaminated object, such as a thermometer or remote control, or with an environmental surface, such as a doorknob or light switch. It also refers to contact with a person other than the infected person.

what is direct and indirect expense
Let us be correct and call these bacteria and/or virus or microbes. They each can be transmitted through direct contact, indirect contact or through the air. Direct contact includes touching with bare skin. Indirect contact is by leaving the microbes on a surface for someone else to pick up.
HIV is not airborne. It is transmitted by direct or indirect contact with an infected fluid.
