Your shoes may collect disenfectant.
I went to a local hospital (Medical Center) for outpatient lab work. That night both my cats got sick. My cats tend to rub their noses against my shoes.
Cats are fortunate in that they will 'throw up' when exposed to poisons -- at least some of the time.
Small children might play with Mommy's or Daddy's shoes.
I know some places have gone overboard spraying with disenfectants on surfaces/floors.
After going out, I try to take off my shoes as soon as I can, and place them in a cardboard box.
Today, I washed a couple of pairs of tennis shoes with laundry detergent, rinsed them thoroughly, and then placed them outside to dry.
Pardon the vanity, but people need to be avoid harm can come to our pets and children from our shoes with the pandemic...
Removing footwear is pretty common where the weather gets foul in winter. It keeps the snow/slush/mud/sand/salt out of the house.
Yup it’s why shoe removal is part of Russian culture too.
Just spray them with 70% alcohol, works just as well as Lysol and is odorless

Society is breeding superbugs by all this over the top disinfectant “anti” everything crap.
I grew up on a hog farm. Take off your shoes and boots and just use regular, plain old soap.
People need to be exposed to things so their bodies are resilient to things later in life. I pretty much never get sick, ever, anymore.
