I would be more concerned about people picking things up and putting
them back down, especially baked goods. I figure that the rest of us
stand a much greater chance of catching someone else's cooties produce
and baked goods that have been manhandled than from the bag that someone
else put their stuff it.

I don't know about everyone else here, but I don't have much faith in
tongs. Sure, they save people from having to touch the items, but what
about the bacteria on the tongs from all the people handling them?
