Train dilemma

Hi, I'm currently sitting on a train which is packed! I'm on a prebooked journey and have another two hours to go. It turned up with only 5 carriages instead of 10. Most people are wearing masks, a few aren't. I'm wearing a mask as required. My issue is a man has sat next to me, he's sat with legs splayed so I am squashed against the window. He's not wearing a mask and coughs, yawns etc without covering his mouth. There are no empty seats. Do I ask him to cover his mouth when he coughs, or do I just gather all my stuff and go stand in the back of the carriage for the next two hours?

I thought this was about the philosophical trolley dilemma! Yes ask him if you feel confident enough

Can you ask him to look after your stuff whilst you check out availability in the train ?

Start mirroring his behaviour and see if he picks up on the hint.
