A black woman who works at the British railway, has died from corona virus    after being spat on while she was working at Victoria station in central London. In a statement on Tuesday, her union, the Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA), said that Mujinga, 47, was working with a colleague when a member of the public assaulted them, spat and coughed over them and said he had the novel corona virus. Mujinga, who had an underlying health condition, was working for Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR) on the station concourse at the time of the incident on March 22. An investigation into the incident had been launched, British Transport Police said in a statement to CNN.
