So had interesting conversation with nurse who is ANTI any physical contact such as handshaking, hugs, and even fist bumps...especially on a cruise with your newest 3000 close friends... I'm not much of a germaphobia (I use 5 hr rule...if it's been on the ground for five hours and the dog hasn't licked it, good to go) BUT, there is probably something to be said ... What say you?

I love hugs.
Guess you can go around the ship with rubber gloves. Take a box of them with you. Change your gloves each time you shake hands.
I'm a hugger with those I know well, handshaker if personally introduced, otherwise it's a hi and a smile.
Actually, we've pretty much stayed on topic.
Lol I knew this would go amuck ...
