"I feel violated," Jason Hargrove said in the March 21 Facebook Live video. He explained that a female passenger had just boarded his bus in Detroit and then coughed near him.
"For you to get on the bus ... and cough several times without covering up your mouth ... that lets me know that some folks don’t care," Hargrove said.
Four days after he made the video, Hargrove tested positive for the coronavirus. He died April 1.
