An Amazon warehouse employee died under mysterious circumstances last month.
According to the World Socialist Website (WSWS), Poushawn Brown, 38, passed away in her sleep after suffering from a headache the previous day. Last September, the Alexandria, Virginia, resident had been tasked with testing coworkers for COVID-19. Brown was not a medical professional, nor was she given the proper protective gear to wear.
After her death, no autopsy was performed because the Brown family couldn’t afford the almost $8,000 medical exam. Amazon did not offer to help, according to the publication. The organization is reportedly worth $1.7 trillion, according to Business Insider.
