Like the French，Italian are also romantic people.When they meet，they always hug or kiss each other.Recently，an Italian grandma made a video to help everyone fight the disease.According to her，if you want to say hello to others，do not hug or kiss.Instead，you can close one of your eyes and give them a wink（眨眼）.Isn't it cute？
