Coughing itself is not a criminal offense; however, if it is done intentionally to harm or threaten others, such as in the context of a contagious disease, it could potentially lead to legal consequences. In some jurisdictions, actions that endanger public health can be prosecuted under laws related to assault or public health violations. Additionally, during certain public health emergencies, specific regulations may apply.
