That varies based on percentage of population infected, the risk is higher when in contact with more people because of the higher chance that one of them has it... but being in prolonged contact with someone who DOES have it is (far) worse than fleetingly passing 10 people who have it. Currently, the chances of brushing past someone who has it (in the uk) is actually very low.
