Furious Piers Morgan has slammed an man who licked a toilet bowl then got coronavirus.

The American was labelled "scum" for callously entering a toilet cubicle and moving his tongue along the bowl as part of a vile 'coronavirus challenge' on social media.

Horrified Good Morning Britain host Ranvir Singh, who hadn't seen the clip before it aired, cried: "Why are we showing this? That is disgusting. Please take that off."

The idiotic man was then seeing crying in hospital after catching coronavirus in another clip that he posted to Instagram.

Piers blasted the "reckless stupidity" and claimed it was "karma" that he caught the deadly virus, although expressed sympathy for the health workers having to take care of him.

After seeing him in a hospital bed, Ranvir said: "You know what, he expects someone to save his life now. To provide medical assistance. It's absolutely disgusting."

Piers pointed out that he would say "no treatment" as he blasted the American man for putting lives at risk.

He said: "Karma is a strange thing. If you behave in such a reckless, moronic, selfless manner, karma will catch up with you.

"I don’t take any pleasure, I don’t wish illness on people, but this has got to stop. These acts of reckless stupidity.

"That guy who like dot toilet bowl, did he infect anyone else?"

Dr Hilary explained that the virus can be spread by going to the toilet through the digestion tract.

Piers also blasted a group of American who went to a 'coronavirus party' dressed as patients, doctors, and nurses, which has left one person seriously ill.

This comes after another American in Virginia was arrested on a terror charge for licking items on the shelves in Walmart.

Piers added: "He has now been found, charged with I think an attempted act of terrorism and is facing five years in the slammer minimum which may stop him licking material for a while."

Horrified Good Morning Britain viewers took to Twitter after watching the hideous clip.

One viewer said "Throw those "Corona challenge" idiots in solitary confinement"

"What is wrong with people," asked another.

A third added: "They should have flushed the toilet guy down the loo"
