Transfer of bacteriophages between the fingers of volunteers and water or saliva

Data sets on the percentage of virus transferred between fingers and water or saliva. Transfer with saliva is for both wet hands (where the virus inoculum was not allowed to appreciably dry before transfer) and for dry hands (where the virus inoculum was allowed to dry before transfer). The data were collected, analyzed, and reported within the following publication:
