Questions to WHO
Q: Should I avoid shaking hands with the new coronavirus?
A: Yes. Respiratory viruses can be spread by shaking hands and touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
It is best to greet with a wave of the hand, a bow of the head, or a bow.
Q: How should I greet people to avoid getting the new coronavirus?
A: To prevent COVID-19, it is safest to avoid physical contact when greeting each other.
Some safe forms of greeting are a hand gesture, a nod, or a bow.
Q: Is wearing rubber gloves in public an effective way to prevent infection with the new coronavirus?
A: No. Washing your hands frequently provides more protection against the spread of COVID-19 than wearing rubber gloves.
Wearing them does not prevent contagion, since if you touch your face while wearing them, contamination passes from the glove to the face and can cause infection.
