Oh, don’t get me started on the PC-church forced-fake -expressions of “peace” and “love” among strangers. I do not like to shake hands with people who are constantly coughing and it puts you on the spot and makes you look anti-social when you do not. (Social-engineering at its finest).
Get back to the traditional Latin practices prior to the Kumbaya hippie era and political correctness from cultural Marxism (anti-Christian, anyways!!!!!!).

Hold your purse in your right hand and a tissue in your left. If someone wants to shake hands refuse saying, “I’m afraid I’ll give you my cold.”
I bring my hands together in a position of prayer, thumbs against chest, and give something between a deep nod and a shallow bow. And I know where the hand sanitizer dispensers are strategically located around the church for those circumstances where I absolutely have to shake.
