If that pile was that of human remains and not that of zombies, it would be perfectly reasonable to think that those dead bodies weren't infected. Have we seen anyone turn from simply a scratch in this series yet? I know in zombie lore, yes, scratches are as bad as bites. But if the pathogen is transmitted by blood/saliva only, scratches would be a way in for the pathogen, but not directly result in an infection.
But how did those humans die? zombies kill by using teeth and nails, there HAS to be a transfer of blood, and saliva during the killing, but those people died before they could turn point being there must have been trace amounts of the virus on the bodies, but angel and riley escaped unturned,

and the other thing is zombies cant just "rip" flesh out of the pile, they lack claws, so they must have used their teeth right? or they took the whole body with them
