With Skype and Co against annoying habits

Like countless other agencies, the Polish agency has now switched to home office, which makes communication tools, and especially video meeting tools, a necessity. These tools could now help us fight an unhygienic and currently even dangerous habit, face-grabbing. Because not only does this lead to annoyances like blemished and itchy skin, but it also increases the risk of infection with the flu or, currently, the coronavirus. And as many videos circulating on the Internet prove: We touch our faces much more often than we think!

With a small update, the video functions of the communication tools could counteract these annoying habits by displaying warnings as soon as a person touches their face. This should at least curb the risk of infection during work. A good and sensible input that could also be useful beyond the Corona crisis.
