Garlic Breath?

Smell test one way to help keep public safe

- Jerry Lawton

Boozing Brits should keep “garlic-breath distance” from each other in beer gardens to stop Covid-19 spreading.

Consultant virologist Dr Julian Tang said if you can “smell your friend’s lunch” you are too close and could be vulnerable to infection.

He claimed the smelly breath test was the best way to keep the virus at bay and prevent a third wave following the easing of lockdown restrictions this week.

Millions celebrated the rule relaxations by descending on pub beer gardens, outdoor eating areas, shops, gyms and hairdressers.
