"We didn’t invent sliced bread with this thing. It’s a door handle," Kristof Sehmke, a spokesperson for Materialise, said by phone from Leuven, Belgium, where the company is headquartered.
One-hundred-thousand blueprints have been downloaded so far, equivalent to at least one tenth of all 3D-printer owners worldwide. The Mayo Clinic in Minnesota has even installed door handles printed from Materialise's blueprints, Sehmke said.
And then someone from the other side, to avoid the germs on said door, kicks it open at the exact moment that poor sap puts his arm in there, snapping it perfectly in two.
What a freaking joke living life in fear

Yeah, so now it's on your clothes.
This would work fine until you sneeze into the crook of your arm.
Doors with automatic motion sensors that open without hands would help.
What about the step-on foot pedal operated TOILET SEAT? Too obvious to patent. We have garbage cans with foot pedals connected to pop-up lids. Just start making them!
Put a hand sanitizer dispenser on the wall next to the door handles. Expensive? Yes. So is being hospitalized on a vent. Most importantly... Wash. Your. Hands. Keep your hands off of your face , nose eyes.
I am so happy to see people thinking out of the box - the future will be different. Now is the time for smart people to think about it!
I am not sure this is all that much better than your hands.
Continue working from home.
now you have a contaminated sleeve, which you cannot wash immediately, spreading virus all day. Use your hands, don’t touch your face, and WASH THEM.
Just make them all automatic.
Yeah, people won’t grab that.
I dont wear long sleeves.
Looks like a great way to get COVID-19 on your sweater and arm.
So let’s germ up our clothes instead. That’s smart. 🤬😷
What about people with really fat arms?
Looks like a good way to break your arm
Great idea. Think of surgeons and how they wash their hands in the operating room. They don't touch anything with their hands, it's all arm action.
Yes, using the arm you just coughed into is much better than the hands you wash constantly.

Senseless worry.
Star Trek figured it out in the 1960’s. Since we stole their logo for the “Space Farce” why not doors too?
the answer of course is unicorns
I eat with my forearm and sneeze on it. No difference
