A video making the rounds on social media shows the moment a man pretended to have been infected by coronavirus as he used a ‘coughing technique’ to displace passengers on a train from their seat.
In the video, a man with a face mask could be seen aboard a train, he got to a row of seats and saw that it was already occupied by other passengers.
While pretending to be looking for a space in the seat, he started coughing, causing panic among the passengers who feared he might be infected with the coronavirus.
To prevent themselves from contracting the disease, they all left the seat for him.
