epaselect epa08382033 Mortuary workers wear protective suits as they move the body of a person who died from coronavirus at the mortuary of Poppy's Funerals in London, Britain, 24 April 2020. The SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus which causes the Covid-19 disease is having a major affect on funeral services, according to Funeral Director Poppy Mardall who runs Poppy's Funeral's in south London. She says: 'We are much busier with 20-30 percent more people being brought in which is a strain. When handling bodies which have had COVID-19, we must wear protective suits, high grade masks and gloves. All funerals are heavily restricted to around 10 people. People can see the body but can no longer have contact. We are seeing more funerals being streamed online and memorials put to a later date. Instead of flowers, children are drawing them. It is harder for people to do the normal rituals associated with death. It is important to remember than people have died and not treat them like a statistic. Funeral directors are helping people pick up the pieces and sudden death means more trauma.' EPA-EFE/NEIL HALL ATTENTION: This Image is part of a PHOTO SET
Gjatë pandemisë së koronavirusit në Britaninë e Madhe, numri i përgjithshëm i rasteve të vdekjes prej të gjitha shkaqeve në vend është për 64.000 më i lartë se zakonisht, tregojnë të dhënat më të reja statistikore.
Epidemiologët vlerësojnë se mortaliteti i ashtuquajtur i lartë, gjegjësisht numri i rasteve të vdekjes prej të gjitha arsyeve që e tejkalon mesataren pesëvjeçare për një periudhë të dhënë të vitit, është mënyra më e mirë për t’u përcaktuar numri i rasteve të vdekjes si rezultat i epidemisë, pasi këto të dhënat janë të krahasueshme në nivel ndërkombëtar.
