As Covid-19 Deaths Mount in Retail, Walmart Workers Take Matters Into Own Hands With Contact-Tracing

[Goonch]

A national labor non-profit on Wednesday launched a virtual tracker for coronavirus cases in Walmart stores around the country, citing the retail giant's inaction in the face of the pandemic in the midst of rising infections and deaths of employees.

"The rise of deaths and infections of Walmart associates show clearly that the company is not only failing to keep its associates and customers safe, but also failing to communicate clearly about store conditions," Michigan Walmart worker Ruby Ann Woolwine said in a statement. "We can't wait for more half-measures—we're taking matters into our own hands to get the information we deserve to know."

1. All of the heirs to Walmart, are billionaires and are not stepping up to the plate, to help ...

their workers? Nice, but on par with Walmart's spotty reputation of racing to the aid of its workers. Again, 'Money over Lives'.

This slogan is going to be one of the most remembered slogans (along w/ other slogans) in American history.

Finally, I hope that the Age of the $Billionaires and $Millionaires is over, rump has ruined their reputation thoroughly. I do get sick of the coddling and babying of these people by the obscene republican party. We all certainly know who the republican party stands for, and it is not 99% of us (hint hint).

So far, trump's genius (remember the 'I, alone' remark) has resulted in a collapsed economy and almost 60,000 lives lost. What else is to come?

Again, genius!

2. K&R for visibility.

3. After all the tracking is said and done

Stores/businesses who did not follow any protective protocol could be in a world of hurt. Especially if they show up as points of contact more that a few times.
People are not yet aware of the legal ramifications that are yet to come.
