The elbow bump is an informal greeting where two people touch elbows. Interest in this greeting was renewed during the avian flu scare of 2006, the 2009 swine flu pandemic, the Ebola outbreak of 2014, and the COVID-19 pandemic when health officials supported its use as an alternative to hand-shaking to reduce the spread of germs.[1][2][3] During the latter pandemic, authorities advised that even an elbow bump was too risky, and suggested greeting from a distance.[4]
