You pre-empt. You say “I’d gladly shake your hand but with the virus ...” You would probably get agreement at that point in the conversation.

I just grimaced and said, "I'd rather not, I'm minimizing contact, what with that virus that's going around. Another day. OK?"

He just nodded and said "Good point."

Never excuse. Never explain. “I don’t shake hands.” Is enough. You do not owe anyone your personal reasons for declining virus or no virus.
