Ross it is always difficult to diagnose from photographs but I do not think that your plant is virused. I think (from the pinpoint necrotic spots) that the leaf is busy dying off because it has been "sucked dry" by sucking insects. I would look at the undersurface of the leaf to see if it has a silvery white appearance (suggestive of red spider and false spider mites) and I would take a strong magnifying glass and look at the under surface of the leaf to see if you can see mites crawling around. Please report back when you have done that. Good luck
