The COVID-19 outbreak has truly exposed some of us humans for what we are.
Toilet paper hoarding, surgical mask stealing humans who also occasionally cough on strangers when the situation calls for it.
Now, we casually put strangers in a headlock too:
Thai Airways Crew Put China Lady Into Headlock After She Purposely Coughed On A Flight Attendant
A Chinese lady on a Thai Airways plane was put in a headlock and pinned to her seat by cabin crew after she allegedly coughed on a flight attendant on purpose.
This happened during an extended seven-hour delay at Shanghai airport.
The incident occurred on Friday, 6 March on a Bangkok-to-Shanghai flight.
A video of the incident that made the rounds on social media showed a male flight attendant headlocking the woman before subsequently pushing her head into her seat.
She then struggles to get free but to no avail.
Other cabin crew arrived to try to provide assistance and one of them said, “Sit down please”.

Seven-hour Delay After Plane Landed Due To Checks
The flight had landed at Shanghai’s Pudong International Airport.
However, passengers weren’t allowed to get off the plane and had to wait on board for seven hours.
That’s like another long flight, so it’s no wonder some people got agitated.
This was due to enhanced measures and screening procedures in light of the COVID-19 which had caused a backlog at the airport.
According to the person who uploaded the video, the Chinese woman coughed on the female flight attendant to try to get the cabin crew to open the door.
However, it was obvious that that attempt did not go very well for her.
The person who uploaded the video wrote, “Senior male flight attendant was having none of it, warned her, then a scuffle ensued.”
“He was going to put her in cuffs, but eventually chose not to.”
Thailand Media Confirmed The Incident
Thailand’s Channel 7 who spoke to Thai Airways said it confirmed the incident had taken place on 6 March on flight TG664 from Bangkok to Shanghai.
A spokesperson confirmed that the plane had already landed safely at the airport.
Ground staff had informed the passengers on board that it would be required to undergo intensive screening procedures.
However, due to a backlog, it would be a whopping seven hours before they could even get off the plane.
Situation In Singapore
The rest of the world is battling the coronavirus, but the situation in Singapore isn’t so rosy either.

MOH announced today that tourists and other short-term-visit pass holders in Singapore have to pay for Covid-19 treatment since 7 March 2020 to “prioritise resources at hospitals”.
Let’s stay safe everyone and remember to practice good personal hygiene and not cough on other people.
