When did people start shaking hands again?

Did I miss a memo?
I have noticed that after like 5 months off, multiple people have started going for the handshake again. Some guy shook my hand today because I got him out of pain last week, and I sprinted for the Purell dispenser.

Then I was at a funeral later, and there was all kinds of hugging and kissing amongst people who, frankly, see each other all the damn time. And it wasn't even one of those sad funerals.

People are letting their guard down. Especially now that the predominant COVID in the country is the stealthier one.
