Handshakes have been put on pause amid the coronavirus pandemic — and they may never come back if some Americans get their way.

  • More than half of Americans surveyed in a new Business Insider/Survey Monkey poll said the handshake should disappear permanently after the COVID-19 pandemic ends.
  • Handshakes have been put on hold due to social distancing recommendations and requirements, and the nation’s top coronavirus expert has suggested handshakes end forever.
  • More than 20% of over those who want it replaced said a wave should replace the handshake.
  • Other suggestions included the “Wakanda forever” salute from “Black Panther”, the “Vulcan salute” from “Star Trek”, and “jazz hands.”
