Is this Tomato spotted wilt..?
It happened very suddenly and so far only this one plant is affected.

I'm sad to say but I think that it is. A better close up view of the leaves would help to id it. It is spread by thrips so you must do something to control those. Spinosad and sticky traps are recommended.

Thank you. Yes the garden had a good spray of "organic" pesticide tonight. Will monitor closely.
I tried to have a very closeup look but I think I caught it very early so it doesn't look exactly like the pictures you tend to find when trying to ID the problem.
