Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Klein Dytham Architecture explain how Japan's culture of bowing instead of hand-shaking may have helped in the fight against coronavirus, in their video message recorded for Virtual Design Festival.
"Luckily the virus hasn't hit too hard here," Mark Dytham explained in the video. "I think one of the reasons is that we wear these masks quite a lot, especially in the winter during the flu months."
He also puts the slow spread of the virus in Japan down to the Japanese culture of greeting one another without touching.
"We also don't shake hands. We bow a lot, which is really great. And there's certainly no huggy-kissy stuff and I think that's probably really helped," he said.
