Two cleaners from the same south London hospital have died after contracting coronavirus, according to reports. Salih Hasan and Fyngs Mullings both worked at St George's Hospital in Totting for the private cleaning giant Mitie.

Their deaths again raise the issue of increased risk run by low-paid front line workers. The firm confirmed two of the cleaners died from the killer bug, while a third unnamed employee, who is also believed to have died from Covid-19, is yet to be confirmed.

They worked as part of the cleaning team looking after wards and corridors at the hospital. When asked if the deaths were related to coronavirus, St George's said they could not confirm cause of deaths at this time.

Community members urged to 'wake up' and help promote safety for students in Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA - Senseless violence in the City of Philadelphia has many on edge. This is especially the case after a 12-year-old girl was shot in a drive-by shooting in North Philadelphia on Tuesday while walking home from school with her younger brother. So far, police have not made any arrests and no suspects have been announced. The school district said it is in constant contact with police and will continue to work towards its Safe Path Program, but with more than 200 schools in the district, they need support and help from the community. FOX 29 spoke to Jose Ortiz, a parent who now walks his son home from the Feltonville School of Arts and Science. RELATED: 'Stay on the line': Philadelphia Police Commissioner responds to concern of long 911 wait timesOrtiz's son was absent on the day of the shooting, but that would have been the typical route he took on his commute home. "It's crazy because he missed that day that it happened and he walks actually through that same light it happened at," Ortiz said. "Yesterday, he was kind of scared to walk home by himself, so I came and picked him up." The safety of local children walking to and from school has become a growing concern. Chief Keven Bethel, a Special Advisor on School Safety for the School District of Philadelphia, appeared on Good Day Philadelphia.
