And murder should that person then die.
I think they may want to debate and eventually create laws around pandemics and masks, and the constitutionality thereof. IMO, can't very well charge someone with a crime that is non-existent or that you simply create.
I think it's important that people wear them in many areas and places. Like stores and other buildings, and it needs to be enforced better. No mask and you simply cannot do business with us.
Now, if someone is tested positive and knows it, and then purposely coughs or spits on someone entirely different ballgame, IMO.
I think this woman just wanted headlines.

Nashville Lawmaker Wants People Not Wearing a Mask to Be ‘Tried For Murder Or Attempted Murder’
A Nashville councilwoman wants anyone who doesn’t wear a mask to be “tried for murder or attempted murder.”
“My question goes back to legislation,” Sharon Hurt, an at-large councilwoman of the Nashville Metro Council, said during a meeting last week between Public Safety, Beer & Regulated Beverages and Health, Hospitals, & Social Services committees.
“But my concern is — you know I work for an organization, that if they pass a virus, then they are tried for murder or attempted murder, if they are not told … and this person who may very well pass this virus that’s out in the air because they’re not wearing a mask is basically doing the same thing to someone who contracts it and dies from it.”
“It seems to me that we have been more reactive, as opposed to proactive, and a little too late, too little,” she said. “Maybe there needs to be stronger legislation to say that if you do not wear a mask and you subject exposure of this virus to someone else then there will be some stronger penalty as it is in other viruses that are exposed.”
