Jason Hargrove was behind the wheel of a bus in Detroit when he said a passenger began to cough. The middle-aged woman let loose four or five times without covering her mouth, he said, and watching her do this — at the same time Michigan was under a state of emergency for the coronavirus — got him so upset, he felt compelled to vent his frustrations in a video afterward.

"I'm mad right about now because that s*** was uncalled for. I'm trying to be the professional that they want me to be, and I kept my mouth closed," he said, voice breaking with emotion. "I kept my mouth closed, but it's at some point in time we've got to draw the line and say enough is enough."

Now, nearly two weeks after he recorded the video, which viewers shared widely on Facebook Live, Hargrove himself has died of COVID-19. The Amalgamated Transit Union confirmed his death in a tweet posted Thursday.

Is there some shady conspiracy to get people to cover their mouths when they cough or something?

There's a correlation here I think you may be implying.

I’ve always wondered why god decided to shite on Louisiana so much. Then you get to talking to a few of their best and brightest here and it becomes pretty clear why the state is constantly being tally whacked by God.

Okay??? And this makes it better? He's still carrying on without this more than likely..

It's still tragic and sucks.

I think he's still directing his post at a potential Louisiana poster and what's currently going on with Louisiana.

I could be wrong though. It's pretty late.

It doesn't make it better, but anyone with health complications should be self-quarantining - as they should have from about 6 weeks ago. People are going to start losing their residences and ability to feed themselves, and their families, at some point in the near future. That will kill healthy, young people and cause serious social unrest and possibly war. We need to be realistic about this and not emotionally driven and irrational.

The CDC was advising people to not wear a mask, I think it could've help this guy.
