No. Just No. There are jewish and muslim bodies in there that need to be respected. Maybe that kind of thing works for gentiles, but that kind of crap just won't fly where i'm from.

Incidentally, that kind of thinking always leads to significant spread of Ebola every time there is an outbreak.

New surge in 78 new cases in China. All early asymptomatic #COVID19 cases. This epidemic is not at all over in China . Resurgence is coming. China removed lockdown too soon.

If youre asking why is the COVID-19 rate so low in germany and high in your country. Is because their president used to be a quantum chemist and your president used to be a reality television host.

"Once decomposition sets in, the virus that is within will definitely be exposed and that can be dangerous. It is advisable that a limited number of people have access to the body and they should be careful in its handling"

the body is still dangerous, even those who handle them are in danger of getting infected, there's even a shortage of health workers

Beaumont Health, Michigan's largest health care system, informed employees on Friday that anyone who refuses a transfer to work with COVID-19 patients will be considered to have resigned and ineligible for future employment.
https://twitter.com/drdanchoi/status/1247006336455520258

During #COVID press conferences, our government officials want to say everything is ok! NO PPE shortages! So why are nurses being asked to REUSE a PROCEDURAL MASK FOR ONE WEEK STRAIGHT? These are paper thin masks Reusing an N95 mask is bad enough Note the date of this notice!

We are doing my wife's visa application here in about an hour. The embassy said to contact them after we complete the application and give them the code. They will then contact immigration and put a rush on the application. She said that she can't guarantee she'll get the visa but under current circumstances and our family situation, they are much more likely to approve it. Ultimately it's up to the immigration officer.

If she gets the visa, they will then book flights for us to Edmonton.

Hopefully we can be out of Asia within 2 weeks.

Think that thru. The whole point of the closings orders and the stay-at-home orders is to slow the spread.

Good video, and demonstrates why just keeping 6 feet from people isn't enough. You want to avoid places where other people have recently been, especially in enclosed public spaces.

Basically everywhere. Which is why staying home is the best thing to do.

Hey Ill cede the point its not just about the surface. But lets get some context. Ive not seen anything to suggest cremating everyone who died is not a knee jerk reaction.

People who handle anything related to this virus are in danger of being infected. Bodies are no different. What is the current medical guidance of people who die with other illnesses? I assume forced cremation isnt on the agenda for those.

yeah, i wonder how those who die from anything other than covid19 would be handled, with lock downs in place, hospitals being swarmed by infected people, and no one might be allowed to hold any funeral, and i assume that the family must decide immediately on what to do with the corpse (to make way for the other victims) while under those restrictions

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/07/climate/air-pollution-coronavirus-covid.html

Coronavirus patients in areas that had high levels of air pollution before the pandemic are more likely to die from the infection than patients in cleaner parts of the country, according to a new nationwide study that offers the first clear link between long-term exposure to pollution and Covid-19 death rates.

In an analysis of 3,080 counties in the United States, researchers at the Harvard University T.H. Chan School of Public Health found that higher levels of the tiny, dangerous particles in air known as PM 2.5 were associated with higher death rates from the disease.

For weeks, public health officials have surmised a link between dirty air and death or serious illness from Covid-19, which is caused by the coronavirus. The Harvard analysis is the first nationwide study to show a statistical link, revealing a large overlap between Covid-19 deaths and other diseases associated with long-term exposure to fine particulate matter.

The results of this paper suggest that long-term exposure to air pollution increases vulnerability to experiencing the most severe Covid-19 outcomes, the authors wrote.

The paper found that if Manhattan had lowered its average particulate matter level by just a single unit, or one microgram per cubic meter, over the past 20 years, the borough would most likely have seen 248 fewer Covid-19 deaths by this point in the outbreak.

Over all, the research could have significant implications for how public health officials choose to allocate resources like ventilators and respirators as the coronavirus spreads. The paper has been fast-tracked for peer review and publication in the New England Journal of Medicine.

For example, it found that a person living for decades in a county with high levels of fine particulate matter is 15 percent more likely to die from the coronavirus than someone in a region with one unit less of the fine particulate pollution.


Now, consider that the Trump administration has worked and continues to work to remove limits on air pollution.
