In the Postal Service’s Dallas District, which encompasses cities in the
Dallas-Fort Worth area and stretches into East Texas, nearly 30 employees have
tested positive for COVID-19 as of Sunday, according to union leaders who said
they get daily updates in teleconferences with USPS leadership.
No deaths have been reported in the Dallas District. But across the
county, at least 44 postal workers have died of COVID-19, according to the
American Postal Workers Union.
A
Dallas letter carrier who balances his work delivering mail with time spent as
a union representative said he hears from co-workers that they’ve struggled to
find places to eat, use the restroom and wash their hands.
