<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>At a press conference Wednesday announcing new steps to deal with the virus, Mr Netanyahu pressed his hands together in a prayer position and bowed when he made his suggestion, stressing the need for personal hygiene.</p>
<p>He also added additional European countries to a list of destinations from which returning Israelis would need to self-quarantine for two weeks.</p>

<p>Observant Jews typically touch the item and then kiss their hands when walking through a doorway.</p>
<p>Chief Rabbi David Lau made the call in a letter on Wednesday.</p>
