Petition Introduce Stricter Laws to act as a Deterrent to Purposeful Virus Spreaders

I would like the Government to give greater powers to prosecution regarding sentencing of individuals who purposely try and spread potentially fatal diseases or viruses.

More details

After seeing some recent media articles in the UK of certain individuals in shops putting saliva on food packaging, on fridge/freezer door handles etc, i believe we need a tougher deterrent.

I see this as nothing more than an attempt to infect & potentially kill many innocent people. Penalties need to be more severe to act as a deterrent.
