I can't understand you.
I claimed you can catch something if you walk through security in bare feet, or if you walk through in socks.
In all my life, and a good portion (gasp) barefoot, I've never once had a problem. ... If you asked me I'd say you need to toughen up your feet
Don't be ridiculous. Athlete's foot and other fungi are high contagious, and you're not immune.
