Amazon sued after warehouse worker gets COVID-19 and cousin dies

Amazon.com is being sued after a worker at its warehouse in Staten Island, NY contracted the novel coronavirus and later saw family members become ill, including a cousin who died. The lawsuit claims Amazon puts its warehouse workers in a "place of danger" by forcing them to meet job requirements that prevent them "from socially distancing, washing their hands, and sanitizing their work spaces.”
