Office Coughers

I need a sanity check / rant r/auscorp. Does every office have that one person that is always coughing? Does it also drive you nuts? How do you deal with it?

Recently my company hired a new person, and we now have two constant coughers within a metre of each other! It’s getting ridiculous, I can’t talk to my colleagues at my desk because we can’t hear each other over the constant spluttering and fits. Is there any way to address this? Bring it up with HR? I’m at my wits end…
