    People who believe the 5G coronavirus conspiracy theory are still attacking key workers. I've got new data showing the scale of the problem. One person was spat on, they've now got coronavirus. Another was stabbed. There have now been 77 arson attackshttps://www.wired.co.uk/article/5g-coronavirus-conspiracy-theory-attacks …

        The data shows a clear spike in attacks in early April, but there have been dozens of attacks and attempted attacks in the last couple of weeks. More here: https://www.wired.co.uk/article/5g-coronavirus-conspiracy-theory-attacks …pic.twitter.com/Yv6xOEoncS

        Openreach is also getting caught up in this 5G hysteria. As its engineers are more visible – working in city centres and on residential streets – they've been targeted with some really vile abuse. I've spoken to engineers about what they're going through https://www.wired.co.uk/article/5g-coronavirus-conspiracy-theory-attacks …pic.twitter.com/3YVW0iIaUc

        Slight error in first tweet: the person who was self-isolating had *suspected* coronavirus. Neither confirmed nor ruled out because he wasn't tested

        We had a hysterical woman shout at us when we were digging a trench for a private fibre network. Refused to listen that it had nothing to do with 5g. Refused to accept the fact that we work for the estate and not telecoms. Silly cow.

        This is worrying. I've seen way more London Real and Edge of Wonder traction in the UK lately. If lockdown is relaxed and more people who've been getting their world affairs news from these pages feel emboldened to 'right some wrongs' then god knows what'll happen
