Spitting in public is a most unacceptable action at any time, and spitting at another person is despicable, inexcusable and disgusting. All the more so during this pandemic, with all the implications of spreading the disease. Anyone who does it deserves to have their sentence increased and where the victim(s) are the Police, paramedics or members of essential services that sentence needs to be further increased.
