I can't imagine what any of this has to do with safety. Don't say, "because cash is dirty, they're all at risk."

Diseases, notably CoVID spread by contact. (And droplets in the air). So non contact payments (and masks) are safer for your cash-handling staff.

Masks don't help, and covid was definitely airborne, never on surfaces. Your advice is useless, and we knew this when it all began.

But, pushing people to favor contactless payments IS one of the reasons for Covid, the manmade virus, to have been created.

Masks don't help

It seems you're mistaken about that.

Face masks to prevent transmission of COVID-19: A systematic review and meta-analysis

In general, wearing a mask was associated with a significantly reduced risk of COVID-19 infection (OR = 0.38, 95% CI: 0.21-0.69, I2 = 54.1%). For the healthcare workers group, masks were shown to have a reduced risk of infection by nearly 70%. Sensitivity analysis showed that the results were robust.

never on surfaces

Never is too strong. It's unlikely if you disinfect surfaces regularly.

The results of the reviewed studies point out that SARS-CoV-2 can last on different surfaces from hours to a few days. However, rapid SARS-CoV-2 inactivation is possible by applying commonly available chemicals and biocides on inanimate surfaces. Contamination of inert surfaces by SARS-CoV-2: Persistence, stability and infectivity. A review

But, pushing people to favor contactless payments IS one of the reasons for Covid, the manmade virus, to have been created.

Okay you seem to have made a couple of leaps to conclusions there. You need to elaborate on your reasoning that:

1) pushing people to favor contactless payments IS one of the reasons for Covid
2) Covid is a manmade virus.
