Coronavirus Does Not Discriminate – So Let’s Replace The Handshake by meavox: 7:49am On Mar 13, 2020 |
... the very short video here is so funny I have already tried the Foot Tapping greeting with my wife. We love it! ================================================================== CORONAVIRUS DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE – SO LET’S REPLACE THE HANDSHAKE Goodbye handshake? Yes please! The Namaste greeting and the foot tapping greeting are better forms of saying hello not just because of Coronavirus, but also in countries where there's nose-picking, spitting out onto the ground, plus open defecation and urination – with no hand washing. These two forms of greeting reduce physical contact with others and so are more hygienic ways to salute. The Namaste greeting is for official or casual salutation, and has its origin in India. You bring your open palms in front of you together (like when clapping), and say: hello, or good morning, or good afternoon etc. Israel, and several other countries are now using the Namaste greeting. The foot tapping greeting is a fun one used with friends and loved ones. It started in China and can be called the “Wuhan shake” or even footshake. Videos of some friends in China greeting one another this way have gone viral on social media. The foot tapping greeting is done between two people who tap the inner right foot together. Then tap the inner left foot together. Be careful though that you don’t lose your balance while standing on one foot! (Link to video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeQXeRO6rJc. So there you have it. It’s goodbye to handshakes and hugs. Please teach children these (new) forms of greeting and spread the knowledge. We should all do as much as possible to lessen the spread of diseases, and keep our communities safer. SOURCE: https://web.facebook.com/ndidi.uwechue
