How does washing hands prevent from parasites such as Giardia lamblia?

Question

Even if we wash our hands, eating food which has Giardia’s cysts will infect us, am I right?

And if we won’t wash our hands, the cysts will get on our hands but we’re not little children to put our hands in mouth so how is this harmful?

You would be surprised how often we all touch our faces on a regular basis. Remember when we were advised not to touch our face When covid hit? super difficult.
furthermore, having any form of infectious stuff on your hands will get that stuff everywhere your hands go. Imagine touching a plate just to move it out of the way and then someone else eats from it.
