Anti-Masker Karen Fired Because She Followed Woman And Her Child Around The Store And Deliberately Coughed On Them

A woman from Nebraska was shot on video while coughing on a mother and her toddler in a supermarket store. Janene Hoskovec, 54, called Anti-Mask Karen on the internet, was dismissed by SAP, a German software corporation, after a video of the incident went viral.

The video, which was shot by the mother, was first shared on Reddit and then swiftly spread to other sites. The mother, who goes by the Reddit handle Jessabird, said she was out shopping when Hoskovec approached her and asked why she was wearing a mask.

Hoskovec started ranting about how she is a native Nebraskan and how unfortunate it is that some Nebraskans have turned into sheep.

“So my kid and I were at the store tonight to pick up a few groceries when this lady approached us and said politely, ‘Excuse me,’ and to be honest I thought she was going to ask me for help or ask where something was,” Jessabird said.

“I was about to say ‘I don’t work here, lady,’ when she asked why we were wearing masks. That’s when I realized that she wasn’t wearing one herself. I started walking away, while replying, ‘Because of the Delta variant, and also because there’s a mandate.'”
