You’re fine. We are exposed to tons of bacteria touching public surfaces all day long. That is what the immune system is for. By the way, you have numerous E. coli bacteria living in your intestine right now.

Do not be concerned. E coly is present in your tap water and is generally harmless. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-gu
