Er zijn de afgelopen tijd meer incidenten geweest met ‘coronakuchers’

2020 March 25, Marc Brink, “Officier eist 3 maanden cel en schadevergoeding Bossche ‘coronakucher’: ‘Uiterst verwerpelijk’”, in Eindhovens Dagblad:

Lately more incidents concerning ‘corona coughers’ have occurred

(description) Rechtbankverslaggever voor de Telegraaf Saskia Belleman was vandaag aanwezig bij de rechtszaak tegen een Corona-kucher die vandaag diende.

2020 March 25, Charles Groenhuijsen, Saskia Belleman, “Hoge straffen voor corona-gerelateerde misdaden, Saskia Belleman vertelt erover”, in Op1, NPO 1:

Court correspondent for the Telegraaf Saskia Belleman today attended a court case brought against a corona cougher today.

De rechtbank neemt de zogenaamde ‘coronakuchers’ in deze tijd erg serieus. De zaken verschijnen daarom extra snel voor de rechter.

2020 March 26, Bregje Kop, “Bredase ‘coronakucher’ verschijnt voor snelrechter”, in Breda Vandaag:

The court takes so-called ‘corona coughers’ very seriously in these times. That's why cases are brought to court extra quickly.

2020 March 28, Rob Zijlstra, “De zinnen verzetten”, in Zittingszaal 14:

Rotterdam sometimes does okay, but denies the press access to the trial of a ‘corona cougher’. In Den Bosch it's been arranged so everyone can watch on the display screens.

Strange weirdos who spit on officers or aid workers have always existed, now those are corona spitters and authorities are rightly taking a tough line on them. Just like on the corone cougher who had to appear in court in Den Bosch this week.

2020 March 31, Rob Tempelaars, “Coronahufter”, in Instituut voor de Nederlandse Taal:

Another categeroy are the jerks who threaten to infect others, the so-called corona threateners. The first of those have already been fined and/or sentenced, such as the corona spitter and the corona cougher.

Zo'n QR-code zal dus heus wel de meeste coronakuchers buiten de deur houden – maar niet allemaal.

2021 September 19, Maarten Keulemans, “Handig, zo’n coronapas. Maar is er eigenlijk bewijs dat die werkt?”, in De Volkskrant:

So such a QR code will surely keep most corona coughers outside the door – but not all.
