Recently, coronavirus has become a real plague of the 21st century, from which it is impossible to hide or hide. Almost a hundred thousand infected with this virus have already been identified, and the end-edge is not visible to this. And in order to somehow stop the spread of the epidemic, residents of different countries are radically changing their habits, culture, style and lifestyle.
China
In Beijing, now on the street you can see a road sign that shows a welcome handshake crossed out by a red line. This picture somehow reminds all of us of the well-known stop sign, warning the Chinese that now it’s better not to shake hands when they meet. Instead, it’s enough to clench your fist and raise it up, bending your elbow, thereby showing that you are glad to see your friend.
France
In France, kissing the cheek has long been a habit. But now in all newspapers and on television they are beginning to actively explain to residents that they should not say hello in such a way as not to transmit their virus to another. Also, do not shake hands actively. Instead, it’s enough to look the other person in the eye, because the views can say a lot.

In South America, a mate drink is very popular, which is drunk from a cup through a special metal tube. And if earlier people shared it with each other, now the Ministry of Health requires that each person has his own individual mate tube, which no one else should touch. And of course, there were also categorically forbidden welcome kisses.
Germany
In order for the inhabitants of the country to refrain from shaking hands, the authorities set their own example. So, at a recent meeting, Chancellor Angela Merkel extended her hand to the Minister of the Interior Seehofer for a greeting, and he "recoiled" from her. But the woman was not offended at all, instead they laughed, and then she raised both hands up in a sign of reconciliation.
Spain
On Easter week, believers usually kiss a sculpture of the Virgin Mary. But only this year this ritual will be strictly prohibited, as announced in advance to the inhabitants of the country. According to the Minister of Health, Fernando Simon, this is a necessary measure that must be taken in order to minimize the risk of coronavirus infection. In addition, it is forbidden to kiss other sacred relics in churches and temples.

Romania
Very soon, the Martisor festival will begin in this country, during which the arrival of spring is celebrated. Usually at this time, men give women flowers, accompanying the gift with a kiss on the cheek. But now the government is asking its citizens to give flowers and other gifts without a kiss, so as not to transmit the infection.
Poland
In Poland, people are very religious and on holidays and Sundays often attend church, where they perform a number of rituals. There they eat prosphora - small round loafs received from priests, and also often dip their hands in sacred water at the entrance to and exit from the church. Now the Ministry of Health advocates banning such rituals. Instead, they advise the loaf to simply accept from the priest, but do not eat it, and do not rinse your hands in the water, but simply overshadow yourself with the sign of the Cross.
Iran
Now in Iran there is an unprecedented surge in the epidemic, so the training viral video is gaining popularity there, which talks about the ban on shaking hands. It says that at a meeting it is better to keep hands in pockets, have a medical mask on your face, and you can greet each other with the help of jumps.
