Rome, Italy: cemeteries packed, protests of undertakers
Undertakers in Rome protested due to long delay in burials on city cemeteries and told authorities were unable to deal with a large number of Covid 19 related deaths. Reuters reported that the managers of the city cemeteries announced that more than 2,000 bodies are kept in the only crematorium in Rome, some from the beginning of the year, explaining that the capacity stands at 50 cremations a day, while due to a large number of burials, mortuaries in other cemeteries are full.
