2. I know they were wearing rubber gloves and rain coats, but slathering that much blood, tissue and guts on themselves, there is no way, IMO, that they wouldn't get some of that stuff on their skin.
They haven't said exactly what the means of transmission are yet other than biting. Maybe getting it on your skin isn't enough. Perhaps you need to get the zombie blood into an open wound.

In 28 days later, it was enough to get it into our eyes or mouth, but that might not be enough here.
