UPS confirms worker death, touts measures to protect employees from virus - WDRB
UPS on Monday acknowledged the death of an employee at its Worldport global shipping hub, though the company declined to confirm many workers' suspicions that the man was infected with the novel coronavirus.
The employee was a supervisor at the company's hub at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport and died Saturday, according to multiple co-workers. An extended family member, who insisted on anonymity, told WDRB that the supervisor was diagnosed with COVID-19 after developing breathing problems and being hospitalized late last month.
