A Spanish man with COVID-19 symptoms who coughed on work colleagues and told them 'I'm going to give you all the coronavirus' has been charged with intentionally causing injury after allegedly infecting 22 people.

MADRID -- A Spanish man with COVID-19 symptoms who coughed on work colleagues and told them "I'm going to give you all the coronavirus" has been charged with intentionally causing injury after allegedly infecting 22 people.

Spanish police said their investigation began after a COVID-19 outbreak at the company where the 40-year-old man worked on the Mediterranean island of Mallorca. Days before the outbreak, the man showed COVID-19 symptoms but refused his colleagues' suggestions to go home and self-isolate, police said in a statement.After work, and showing no improvement, he went for a PCR test before visiting a gym and returning to work the next day. Though his superiors told him to go home after he allegedly had showed a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius, the man refused.

He walked around his workplace, lowering his face mask and coughing on people, saying "I'm going to infect you all with the coronavirus," according to police. At the end of the day, his PCR test came back positive. His colleagues were then tested, with five returning positive results. They in turn infected family members, including three infants, police said. At the gym the man visited, three people tested positive and also infected family members.A judge charged the man, who was not identified by police, and released him on Saturday evening to await trial, Spain's Europa Press news agency reported.

Well Canadians should be like some of them Americans that are Suing Trump for NOT Handling Covid , so Come On Cdns. Better Sue Dummies in Govt's in jjhorgan , JustinTrudeau who are NOT Handling COVID just like Trump didn't. EH

Randy Hillier would say, 'You're not trying!'

What about Dr Tam, not closing boarders 1 year ago and being the direct reason for every single Canadian infected?

I'm sure that he's not even close to being the record holder.

Excellent.

Clickbait headline, seek help . Spanish man intentionally coughs on coworkers threatening them with Covid infection. Honestly there needs to be some serious changes to the laws governing the media in Canada JustinTrudeau francoislegau14. The platform is void of ethics

How much do you get paid to publish lies

Wow. That's insane. Knowingly having Covid and purposely infecting people?! And this guy did it at his workplace, so, seemingly educated. Just too much. Nuts that there's this, I don't know what to call it, sickness that runs in humanity that people would do that?

Jail time. In isolation of course.

a lot of people spread covid intentionally his only mistake was getting caught

Certainly if he knew what he was doing it should call for Jail time!

They need to start charging people in Canada, not only giving tickets. Starting by two entitled politicians organizing anti mask meetings in Ontario for their self serving populist propaganda. No one is above the law. COVIDIOTS

Scamdemic just keep writing your fear articles, people are staring to wake up
