To be fair most suspected cases of coronavirus won't be actual cases. If you seem to have the flu and have been anywhere near where it's been spreading you're assumed to have it.

Get used to it, until the media loose interest and move onto something else, everyone with a runny nose will jump to the conclusion they have Covid-19.

Wasn't corona virus. any flu like symptoms are going to be leapt on currently.

The irony being that it's primarily a deep-lung infection and a runny nose is almost certain not to be a symptom. The person almost certainly does have a coronavirus, though - the common cold is one!

An excellent way to ensure some trains get a good deep clean!

Not such an excellent way to get home if you are booked on said train though.....

Haha! Next time I'm on a filthy Northern unit I'm going to keep blowing my nose... not only will the train get a clean, I'll get myself and my fellow passengers two weeks off work!

Good chance of getting a seat as well!

Might end up isolated in a siding for a few weeks, but with a seat ...

Tyrell says a fault with the unit - so unless someone's decided to give a false reason on there I'd suspect there wasn't any worries with coronavirus

No, not now -- but it is almost inevitable that UK will eventually get thousands of cases - hopefully not fatal for most of the victims.
