Here we go again, another bioterrorist trying to wreak havoc, but thankfully was busted on camera trying to pull off his dirty deed.
Here’s what happened: a Belgium train passenger wearing a medical mask was caught on a viral video wiping his spit on a handrail.
The man was holding a beer and would lick his fingers and then wipe them on the pole inside the rail car.

The good news is he’s been arrested, but his identity has not been made public.
“[Look at this person] who is surely contaminated with coronavirus is doing to the bars of public transport! Don’t touch the bars anymore!” a translation of the caption on Twitter read with the posted video, which did not relate any information about who filmed the scene or what prompted the recording.
The passenger was standing on the ride with beer bottle in hand when he pulled down his protective mask, inserted his fingers into his mouth and then clearly wiped his saliva-covered digits on the vertical pole used by the public.
Repulsed viewers were outraged and the video led to the man being arrested by Belgian police a short time later. The Brussels Intercommunal Transport Company issued a tweet to reassure passengers that “our metros are cleaned every day.”
“The man (intoxicated) was arrested by the police and our security service,” the tweet read. “The subway train was withdrawn from service to be disinfected.” [Bizpacreview]

This is why it’s so important to wash your hands and avoid touching handrails when you can.
Maybe wear a pair of gloves if you have to take public transportation or even an Uber or Lyft.
