Within two weeks, the second postman died on the job. As we previously reported, a delivery man in Kelebia suffered from heatstroke, and although he was taken to the hospital by an ambulance helicopter, he died last Friday morning. A few days ago, another tragedy occurred: a wasp stung a postwoman while delivering letters in Szank, Bács-Kiskun county. The lady fell into a life-threatening condition not long after, and then died.
The Postal Union announced in a statement that it considers the delivery person to be its own dead – writes Tények.hu.
Rest in peace! We deeply sympathize with his family, to whom we try to provide all the support we can. We wish you strength and a speedy recovery!
– wrote the Postal Union on its website.
The employees of Szanki Posta said goodbye to their colleague on their social media page:
“We all knew and loved him, his sudden passing is a loss to all. We say goodbye to him with pain!” says the statement.
