Johannesburg - Funeral undertakers are feeling the effects of the devastating Covid-19’s second wave.

President of the National Funeral Practitioners Association of SA, Muzi Hlengwa, said that the funeral industry could not make adequate preparations for the second wave.“A lot of clients have come forward to cancel their policies not because they want to but because it's the situation they are faced with and unfortunately some things are beyond our control," Hlengwa said.“Unfortunately if government does not intervene sooner things will get out of hand.

Health Minister Zweli Mkhize said on Wednesday that 21 832 new cases were identified while 844 deaths were reported, taking the country's cumulative case count to 1 149 591 and death toll to 31 368. “We have run out of PPEs and coffins. That is the sad reality, the second wave has really been difficult to deal with. The number of people waiting to be buried in our province is just as alarming as the positive cases.”“Some of them are understanding but obviously others don’t want to hear anything and we understand because it’s what they are going through and the pressure that comes with giving your loved one a dignified funeral.
