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.
