How do you cover?

[•.*°•☆. Q .☆•°*.•]

There have been lots of polls about what people prefer about covering in fics or in other people, but i don't think there's been a survey about our actual habits! Please answer honestly, responses are anonymous unless you choose to leave a comment about it! 

Personally i usually cover in either my elbow or my shoulder if i'm around others, or into both hands if i'm alone. What about you?

I never sneeze in public (well, virtually never, like only a few times in my adult life), but privately it's always stifled and either uncovered, or covered with one cupped hand or one fist.

Well, I don't normally sneeze in public, though my mental block has actually failed me a couple of times… so, if I do, I usually stifle into my elbow. I do that if I  will be around others too. Like, even if I'm alone in the room when I sneeze, if I know others will be in the room right after, I still sneeze into my elbow. I hate the idea of getting others sick (which is also a bit self-preservation, since I'm mostly around family and I really don't want them to get sick.   ), and it seems easier to have that as a general rule than to make the distinction between a random sneeze and a cold sneeze when it happens. 

If I'm alone at my own place, however, I always sneeze uncovered.

If I’m alone or outside not In close proximity to others I almost always just sneeze openly into the air.  In situations where I actually do need to cover it’s with one hand

I don't cover I like to spray . It feels good .and IAM not worried about germs

When I'm alone a prefer not to cover and to just let my spray out. When I'm in public, I'll usually cover into my forearm (even though I secretly want to let those one out uncovered too)

Man after my own heart. I very rarely ever cover. If there are other people around, I will try and sneeze with my mouth closed, keeping the force of it minimal.

Balled up fist usually

About 60% of the time I don't cover but if in close quarters then usually one cupped hand is the go to.

If it seems big though then possibly two hands.

Very occasionally when I have a handkerchief available and ready (mostly only if sick) then a handkerchief is the ideal but that doesn't usually happen.

 

Absolutely hate stifling and never really got into the elbow habit.

I pinch my nose and sneeze
