> Sounds bad, but imagine the warehouse manager would've helped the guy and gotten COVID-19!
Isn't Amazon testing warehouse employees for COVID-19 whenever they enter their premises?
Nevertheless, unless Amazon treats their employees like utter crap, showing any symptom of COVID-19 would be grounds to just let them go on sick leave no questions asked. Instead, the newspiece states that the manager of the deceased was making him run laps.
Sure, but with the new Delta Plus® variant (+ false-negative tests + asymptomatic transmission) it's better to play it safe & keep your distance from other human resources.
