Often churches which have the “common cup” use silver or gold chalices, which naturally have anti-microbial properties. They will also often turn the chalice after each user, and then wipe it with a cloth (sometimes soaked in strong alcohol) to cleanse it further.
For those who find this gross, many churches also offer individual cups.
There is a lot of variation here, some churches only do individual cups, some only do common cup.
