Coronavirus is at its peak. At the moment, all around the world, people are wearing masks and taking extra precautions whenever they feel like coughing or have flu-like symptoms.

The clip, which was posted today, was shot in a train in Sydney, Australia. It shows a woman getting in a verbal fight with a man after coughing.

In the clip, the man can be heard accusing the woman, sitting opposite to him, of coughing without covering her mouth. The woman responds by saying, "I did not open my mouth when I coughed, I coughed inside my mouth," to which he replies, "It's disgusting."

She says, "Ya, you are disgusting too," and then she fake coughs at the man. After that, the man removes his headphones and his glasses and asks, "Are you serious? Did you just cough at me?" with astonishment.

The woman replies, "I don't have the pandemic," and calls him a "bully" as he takes out his phone and starts recording her.

He says, "I asked you politely to cover your mouth and you coughed at me."

This exchange between the two has been going viral on the internet and has left people divided into two groups with many calling out the woman. Have a look.

Coughing without covering your mouth is disgusting even if there was no such thing as the coronavirus. Simple manners. Matthew Rowland (@Matthew58489786) March 8, 2020
