agree  Erich Ekoputra: Sedikit edit: (a.) dalam BI, bentuk tunggal dapat mewakili jamak dalam kasus yang sudah pasti: "partikel virus" (b.) "benda" lebih nyaman terdengar daripada "obyek"

virus particles ...
partikel virus...


Explanation:
"virus/ particles/ can (also)/ be transmitted/ (to) others/ by way of/ intermediary..."

"Partikel/ virus /(juga) bisa/ ditularkan /(kepada) orang lain/ dengan cara/ benda perantara..."

So the the translation you provided is ok, for informal, but if it's formal change "bisa" (informal) to "dapat" (formal).

As for the next part, editing is needed:
Source: "seperti alat makan, cangkir gincu atau bibir balsem alat pemakia, sikat gigi, atau sehelai handuk muka pun."

Edited: "seperti alat makan, kuas lipstik, balsem bibir, sikat gigi, bahkan handuk muka"

Hope it helps.
