Someone I know accidentally touched (with her finger) the screen of my MacBook, how dangerous is that to the screen/computer?

Apart from making it dirty and full of finger prints it won't harm the screen/computer.

Depends on the pressure of how hard you're touching it, obviously if you punch or poke really hard it, something's going to happen, but just touching it won't do anything.
