At least seven Amazon warehouse workers have died during the coronavirus pandemic – and the company is being tight-lipped about how many total workers have been infected.
Two more deaths were confirmed this week – one in Long Island, NY and one in Indianapolis, Indiana. Deaths have also been recorded in Illinois and California.
Amazon has declined to reveal how many of its warehouse workers have contracted COVID-19, but says it notifies employees via text or automated call when one of their coworkers is diagnosed.
Earlier this year, workers accused the company of not doing enough to protect its warehouse employees.
