A RAILWAY ticket-office worker has died of coronavirus after being spat at while on duty, her trade union confirmed today.
Transport Salaried Staffs’ Association (TSSA) member Belly Mujinga, 47, was on the concourse at Victoria station in central London in March when a member of the public — who said that he had Covid-19 — spat and coughed at her and a colleague.
Within days of the assault, both women fell ill with the virus.
