Not Likely: If it were likely, every man, woman & child in the world would constantly have STDs since most studies show that few bother washing their hands before leaving the restroom (gross, I know!) Still,STD =SEXUALLY transmitted disease so unless you had sex with the door handle (Really Gross!) you'll be fine. If anything, you are more likely to catch a cold than an STD this way!
