With Virus Concerns, New Way Of Greeting Each Other Is … Going Viral

We might all be greeting each other this way before too long

While the Coronavirus is definitely serious, sometimes the way to get through things like this without your head exploding is to have a laugh. 

Which brings us to “The Wuhan Shake”…which, like the virus itself, is said to have originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan.

In a Twitter video that’s, uh, gone viral, a couple of residents of Wuhan good-humoredly demonstrate a new way to greet each other without actually touching skin on skin and honestly, it actually looks pretty cool. If things with the virus get much worse around here, we might forego the handshake for the “Wuhan Shake” too.

People in China found another way to greet since they can’t shake hands.

I love how people can adapt and keep a sense of humor about stressful situations. pic.twitter.com/P8MSfOdJ2H
