Prince George’s County health worker killed by COVID-19 after requests to work from home were denied
Published 6 hours ago Coronavirus Associated Press
PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. - As a veteran public health worker, Chantee Mack knew the coronavirus could kill. She already faced health challenges and didn’t want to take any chances during the pandemic. So she asked — twice — for permission to work from home.
She was deemed essential and told no.
Eight weeks later, she was dead.
