Don't think you need to worry.

As far as i remember iOS is designed so that each app is 'independent' so even if one got infected it couldn't spread to other parts of the iPad / iPhone.

People moan about not being able to view the same document in different apps but this is the benefit! The infected doc cannot spread its evil to other apps.

I think there is a slight increase of risk if you jailbreak - but even then it's not really an issue. Who even does that anymore?
