Authorities say a 41-year-old Berks County woman deliberately coughed on a nurse while she was waiting to be seen at St. Luke’s Urgent Care Center in Hamburg, according to media reports.
Jessica Saul, 41, of the 400 block of South Fourth Street in Hamburg was charged with reckless endangerment, disorderly conduct, and harassment, police said. The incident happened on Nov. 10, when she became “irate” that she was told to wait in her car before being seen for a COVID-19 test.
The woman went to the urgent care center because she said she thought she was had COVID-19 symptoms, the Morning Call reported. She refused to wait in her car.
When a nurse went to check on Saul, who “heard the commotion inside the care center,” to tell her the center’s COVID testing policy, “Saul removed her mask and coughed on the woman’s face,” police said.
Before leaving the urgent care center, Saul said, “take that.”
The nurse said she felt Saul’s spit in her eyes. She had to be tested for the coronavirus.

This was a fully deliberate act, not a spontaneous sneeze or cough. Don’t mess with the nurses. It’s like dealing with a flight attendant during a flight. They have ways of evening the score whenever possible.

“That ain’t lemonade, sir”.
Lock her up for the next 20 years.
“The nurse said she felt Saul’s spit in her eyes. She had to be tested for the coronavirus.”
Protocol for bodily fluid exposure would also be to test for HIV, Hep B and C.
And they should have forced the spitter to be tested too.

It’s a good place to be from...as in AWAY from.
I like Berks county (next one over from me) EXCEPT Reading.
My guess is that a respiratory type illness will have respiratory type symptoms, one of which is uncontrollable coughing.
So, it might be hard to prove intentionality in this case.
A smile is but a smile, a cough is but a cough...until you add “take that!”
In California it’s just a misdemeanor to knowing have AIDS and not tell the person you are porking
