<p>I've been trying to find statistics about how many people the average person interacts with in a single day. I'm doing this as part of my research on the spread of infectious diseases.</p>

<p>Specifically, I wanted to ask "<em>What percentage of the total population does the average person interact with in a single day?</em>", but I wasn't sure if this was the right place to ask.</p>

<p><strong>Is it on-topic to ask questions about finding a statistic?</strong></p>
