Travellers cover heads with plastic bottles during coronavirus outbreak

As the novel coronavirus continues to spread, officials in China are urging citizens to wear masks in public to stop the spread of the virus.

One man filmed at a train station in the city of Weifang in eastern China's Shandong Province on January 26 was more inventive - he wore a face mask and a large plastic bottle covering his head.

Other travellers have been spotted using the same method.
