<span style="color: #222222;">US' top infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci has said that People &nbsp;should never shake hands again, underlining that the practise would not only prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus but also decrease instances of influenza dramatically in the world.<br />'' <br />'' Fauci, who is the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a lead member of the White House Task Force on Coronavirus said that washing hands should be a must in people's daily routine.<br />'' <br />'' He further added that it would not only be good to prevent coronavirus disease but probably would decrease instances of influenza dramatically. Because as a matter of fact, that is one of the major ways you can transmit a respiratory-borne illness.<br />'' <br />'' Responding to a question on the possible measures to be taken to contain the spread of the virus, he said, One of them is absolute compulsive hand-washing. The other is you don't ever shake anybody's hands.<br />'' <br />'' In the recent weeks, President Donald Trump too has been talking about doing away with the hand shake, which is a part and parcel of the American culture.<br />'' <br />'' Globally, 88,538 people have died due to coronavirus and nearly 1.5 million people have been infected.</span><br />'' &nbsp;<br />
