The RCMP are taking a very dim view of those who think COVID-19 is a joke.
The Mounties this week took to social media to warn those who pretend to have the virus, and proceed to touch others, that they’re taking those actions seriously.
Their message? “Knock it off!”
Pretending to have #Covid19 and joking about it after you touch someone or cough at them is no laughing matter! Police are investigating all such reports. Knock it off! #RespectPhysicalDistance #StopIt #WeAreAllInThisTogether #RCMPNL pic.twitter.com/pIRL6nIQcQ
