The Buddhist street survival handbook....
recommends using ones elbow to press pedestrian crossing lights because if you found that part of your anatomy was later in accidental contact with your own mouth or eyes I'm not sure you'd be caring much about Covid 19 at that point. I believe that it also assumes that most Buddhists try to refrain from sticking their own elbows in other folks eyes & mouths.
