Corona Virus Update 5/28

We are 81 days from our first confirmed case of Covid in Connecticut. We are 8 days into our reopening.
Hospitalizations are down 36 today to 648
23 more have died, for a total of  3,826.

I was on a call with a member who has been sick for over a month, was hospitalized for 11 days, still gets out of breath, and she had not filed for unemployment or Workers’ Compensation. Please speak to your union rep if you become sick. Employers will not look out for your best interest. (I’m sure there are occasional exceptions)
In fact, some hospitals will send you a bill for your hospital treatment if you become sick at work!
That was the case fro this hospital member.
