Myanmar cemeteries overcrowded, volunteers overworked from deadly third wave of Covid-19

Myanmar cemeteries overcrowded, volunteers overworked from deadly third wave of Covid-19 Myanmar cemeteries overcrowded, vol. YANGON: As Myanmar suffers its deadliest surge in Covid-19 and its citizens suffer from massive shortages in oxygen, bodies pile up in its crematoriums. We have to transport around 20 to 30 bodies per day. Some days, we cannot even get them all, said Ko Min Din from the Myittar Thingaha humanitarian group. Ko Min Din says the large numbers of deaths during the third wave of Covid-19 means that groups like Myittar Thingaha are outstretched and overworked. We cannot afford any rest days. We pick up the body, get the death certificate, and send it to the cemetery. When it is our turn, we give it to the cemetery and we leave, says Ko Min Din. 

Nearly 50 Held in Myanmar s Insein Prison Now Infected With COVID-19 — Radio Free Asia

AFP Nearly 50 prisoners held in Myanmar’s notorious Insein prison are infected with COVID-19 but are being denied effective medical treatment by the country’s military, which overthrew the country’s democratically elected government in a Feb. 1 coup, lawyers for some inmates said on Friday. Among the 48 now infected are political leaders from the ousted National League for Democracy (NLD), doctors connected to the country’s Civil Disobedience Movement, and American journalist Danny Fenster, editor of the online Frontier Myanmar magazine. Top NLD leader Nyan Win, 78, and Yangon Region Social Affairs Minister Naing Lin, both now diagnosed with COVID-19, were arrested on Feb. 1. Nyan Win has been charged under Section 505(b) of Myanmar’s Penal Code for calling the military coup unlawful and its instructions invalid.

Yangon Cemeteries Overflowing as Myanmar Struggles to Contain Third Wave of COVID-19

Reuters Cemeteries in Myanmar’s largest city Yangon are overflowing with corpses as hundreds of people each day are dying of COVID-19 related causes, aid groups in the city told RFA Wednesday, as many observers blamed the ruling military junta for a callous pandemic response. Myanmar is dealing with a third wave of outbreaks of the disease, and Yangon’s four cemeteries are ill-equipped to handle daily death tolls of about 500 people amid an oxygen shortage that has gripped the entire country. Almost all of Yangon’s coronavirus deaths are due to hypoxia, when oxygen fails to reach bodily tissues, a common symptom in serious COVID-19 cases, but Myanmar’s military junta two days ago denied that the oxygen shortage exists.
