KABUL (Pajhwok): The number of deaths caused by COVID-19 could overwhelm local capacity to handle dead bodies properly, the International Committee of the Red Cross warned on Thursday.
Officials can overcome this risk through proper preparation and planning so that the dignity of the deceased and surviving family is respected, ICRC said in a statement.
The failure to plan and prepare for mass casualties risks people being buried in mass graves, with few records and little understanding of who died and where the body was . . .
