Man gets coronavirus after licking toilet bowl in ‘coronavirus challenge’

The so-called ‘coronavirus challenge’ – which sees people share videos online of themselves licking objects in public places – has been slammed as “highly irresponsible” by health experts.

A man has landed himself in big trouble after partaking in the rival ‘coronavirus challenge’ and he is now infected with the novel coronavirus.

In bizarre footage posted on TikTok, the man can be seen placing his mouth around the bowl and extending his tongue.

According to Piers Morgan on GMB, the same man is now receiving treatment.

The presenter said: “You may remember also the other idiot, this is also in America, as part of the coronavirus challenge some morons are doing, went into his local toilet cubicle and licked the bowl.

“I think this called karma – he’s got coronavirus.”
