A man has been spotted wearing a gas mask at a busy train station as fears over the dangers of coronavirus grow.

The commuter was snapped standing waiting for a service at Milton Keynes Central at around 8am this morning.

Bemused onlookers can be seen staring at the man, who appears to be dressed in a suit and wearing gloves.

Matt Brown, 51, took a picture of the bizarre scene while on his way to work.

He said: “He was just among the crowd waiting to get on a train. It was almost surreal. I did a double take.

“I was incredulous, really. That’s the expression you can see on other people’s faces.

“He looked like he was going to storm the station!

The number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the UK currently stands at 36.

The outbreak of the virus has led to a global run on sales of face masks – despite evidence most people who aren’t sick don’t need to wear them.

A number of businesses are sold out while others are limiting how many a customer can buy.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
