You can't catch something by touching them unless they have open wounds, vomit, blood, or other bodily fluids on them. The risk doesn't come directly from the meth, but from other diseases that people on meth often have. There's also a large risk of needles in pockets and such so they have to be very careful in apprehending someone clearly on drugs.
In EMS they call it body substance isolation; got to protect #1.![]()
