Zusammenfassung:A device for reducing direct contact between a person's hand and an object in their environment. The device is a low touch utensil comprising a body with a top and bottom surfaces, and a peripheral wall extending therebetween. A handle on the body is grasped in a single hand of a user. The user manipulates the body to bring at least one region of the utensil's body into contact with a surface of an object in their environment, particularly a surface the user might think is contaminated with viruses, bacteria or other substances. The user manipulates the body to apply one of a pushing force, a pulling force, and a rotational force on the object to move the object, activate a function of the object, or deactivate a function of the object. The contact region on the body may be a specially configured region of the peripheral wall.
