sat down at the airport charging phones

I hear a sneeze – I look up

young Caucasian male 6 feet from me ,it could be a one off sneeze right?

then I look again,

he’s wearing shorts and a football t shirt whilst everyone is rugged up

football , alcohol , doesn’t take care of himself

he’s sick

I move away and he’s periodically sneezing and coughing the dirty prick not covering his mouth or bothering to get a nose wipe.

when you see the signs – stay away

the place I’m going to is plagued by sickness at the best of time and gastro, food poisoning , colds , flus and a whole bag of sickness from hand foot and mouth to measles rage across the city due the high level of a certain section of the community who have zero hygiene and die off decades earlier than anyone else.

I can hear tall them coughing around me now
