USA Today has an article where a woman in California was in a yogurt shop line for check out. There was a baby in a stroller, the mother and the grandmother behind her. Words were exchanged because she felt they were not social distancing enough. She finally removed her mask, knelt down to the baby and coughed in the baby's face several times. They have a picture of her and the police are looking for her to charge her with assault. What type of person would intentionally try to hurt a baby?

So let me get this straight ......   this woman was concerned that the mother & grandmom were too close to her, and they wouldn't back up and give her space?   They refused to "socially distance" from her?   

 

Did she actually hurt this baby that was too close to her?  

 

Granted, it was an odd reaction, but why didn't the women just adjust their places in line to make everyone else feel more comfortable?   

 

I don't know about anyone else here, but don't you think both parties were a little in the wrong?   


She assaulted the baby!

What a pathetic way to spend his time. Hiding behind his truck to pop out and cough on people. And as a mean old man just as subject to karma as anyone else, he's risking death to do it.

While I highly doubt the child will get COVID-19 from this woman, what she did was, in my opinion, assault. And, again, I hope she's at least fired from the school district. 

 


@Sushismom   Please post the link and/or copy paste the article where you got that info from.

I researched & could not locate anything that stated this person has been found and/or where she worked.

@Tinkrbl44  .....  I do not think anyone can say who was right or wrong if the dispute was about social distancing without knowing details.

 

I do know that I can say the woman was wrong about coughing in the baby's face. The videos are very clear on that fact. No one should try to harm an innocent child.

What is wrong with people?  What happened to kindness?  It has gone out the window I think.

Thanks for replying. I just got back from dialysis and couldn't reply earlier. Not sure why Mz Imac couldn't find any info on this woman being found.
