Relatives prepare a grave for a COVID-19 victim at Cipenjo cemetery in Bogor, West Java, Indonesia, on July 14, 2021. With the numbers of death increasing from the latest virus surge in Indonesia which has crippled the healthcare system in Java and Bali, relatives and residents decided to volunteer to dig graves using their own hoes and shovels to help exhausting gravediggers.
For the past two weeks, they’ve put into earth more than 10 bodies a day, up from two previously — a sign of a devastating surge ripping through the Southeast Asian nation, which is now Asia’s hot spot with over 80,000 COVID-19 fatalities and more than 3 million confirmed cases since the beginning of the pandemic.“The relatives of the dead asked the community leaders for help to find gravediggers.
The volunteers use their own hoes and shovels brought from home. Other graveyards often use heavy machinery to meet the needs.
Praying for Indonesia!
Tragic numbers.
How confident are you in the veracity of this data? As the global population fears looming deaths is there additional context here?

AP FACT CHECK: Biden goes too far in assurances on vaccinesPresident Joe Biden offered an absolute guarantee Wednesday that people who get their COVID-19 vaccines are completely protected from infection, sickness and death from the coronavirus. The vaccines are extremely effective but “breakthrough” infections do occur and the delta variant driving cases among the unvaccinated in the U.S. is not fully understood. Also Biden inflated the impact of his policies on U.S. jobs created in his first half-year in office, misleadingly stating his administration had done more than any other president. Yep. 'Inaccurate statement' as opposed to outright lie like someone else would've done. Regardless, now go GetVaccinatedASAP! Padding the story At the end of the day hospitalizations from vaccinated people are less than 1%. The people NOT getting the vaccine don't need a long, drawn out pedantic lecture on the subtleties. They need to hear 'get the vaccine or die.' That is language they understand. Joe is SELLING the vaccine in an attempt to counter the LIES told by the other side.

AP-NORC poll: Most unvaccinated Americans don't want shotsMost Americans who haven’t been vaccinated against COVID-19 say they are unlikely to get the shots and doubt they would work against the aggressive delta variant despite evidence they do, according to a new poll that underscores the challenges facing public health officials amid soaring infections in some states. .ap The media & government are now pushing the BIG lie that un-vaccinated ppl are causing the spike in cv-19. Government want the un-vaccinated & vaccinated Americans to fight amongst each other. It's the same play book they use to get black & white to fight each other. CNN Good, sign a waiver declining treatment as well. More lies. I personally know of two persons, presently dying in the hospital that have had these concoctions injected into them. It didn't help at all. So quit the lies and the agenda on pushing these enhanced gene therapy drugs.
