There i was at the store in line waiting to pay for my items when this woman behind me had a coughing fit,she was coughing and coughing WITHOUT covering her mouth!That make me wonder if she come from a other part of the world were it's all right to share your germs,but here in Canada and most place on earth i know we cover our mouth.It's not difficult,i cough in my sleeve because that's better than my hand and i don't thing peoples next to me want what i have.Anyway,i told her to cover her mouth...please and she got offended,oh well,too bad!

It happens. People would get the hang of it over time though. I say it happens everywhere. Well, I there was nothing offending in saying to cover up her mouth. I know it is strange but well...what can be done...

ya that's not the most sanitary thing to do. like you, i also cough into my sleeve it's more sanitary. coughing in your hands leaves too many germs...i would politely ask the woman if she can cover her mouth.

I also would have asked her to please cover her mouth. It is not good to cough with an open mouth as it does spread germs into the air. She got offended?? Too bad for her. I also would have covered my nose and mouth so I could protect myself from her and her germs.
