Funeral directors in Ireland advised to immediately bury coronavirus victims with no funeral service

"It was not our intention to alarm the public or be insensitive to the trauma that loved ones may face."

The guidance was issued by the Irish Association of Funeral Directors to its members as part of a list of recommendations. Among the guidelines issued by the IAFD, funeral directors are advised to wear protective clothing when handling deceased and all clothing should then be disposed of safely and vehicles cleaned after removal of the deceased.

"We have issued a guidance policy to our members in the unfortunate event that they may have to arrange a funeral for a victim of coronavirus," the statement read.

Sobering to think that somewhere out of the public eye people are trying to figure out how to safely dispose of a surge in additional bodies.

Holy hell this is bollocks.
