Use your elbow, or your foot.

    This is what I do. I just always try avoid touching anything directly with my hands. Knee, elbow, back of wrist, foot...lots of good options if you don't have a sleeve or something disposable available.

    Edit: Sometimes there is also the discrete move of letting someone go ahead of you. Looks polite and they touch it instead.

    I failed to mention that I also consciously note when I touch something public. I'm fine with touching anything, shaking hands, etc. I just won't touch my face or eat food until I've washed my hands again.
