Someone drove a remote control 'coronavirus' around anti-lockdown protesters

Someone had the best reaction to anti-lockdown protestors: driving a remote-controlled virus model around them during a demonstration in Wisconsin.

While the US government has urged people to stay at home to help curb the spread of the novel coronavirus - in order to save lives - some people have taken it upon themselves to protest the measures. Last Friday, on the 24th April, a couple thousand people gathered in Madison, Wisconsin, to protest stay-at-home orders and the fact that Gov. Tony Evers has extended them until the 26th of May. Similar demonstrations have taken place across the US, but this was one of the nation's largest to date.

The event was reportedly referred to as some as the "Let's share COVID-19 rally". However, one person, who has remained unidentified, found a rather interesting way to hit back at the protestors; creating a remote-controlled "coronavirus", which featured a round, grey mass and red spikes. It's now known as the "Covidbot".

The prankster then proceeded to drive it around the protest, and even chased a few demonstrators that had gathered in the area.

As the Covidbot made its way through protestors at the demonstration, it served as a stark reminder of how quickly COVID-19 can be transmitted from person to person.

Police were present at the protest in Madison, but they remained at least six feet from protestors to adhere with social distancing guidelines - however, they did not enforce the measures on the crowd.
