UTH MORGUE FULL

By Kasabula Muchimba:

The University Teaching Hospitals -UTH- Main Mortuary is full to capacity.

And management says in addition to deaths which occur at the hospital the facility has also been receiving an average of 50 brought-in-dead -BIDs- every day since the third wave of Covid 19 started about 2 weeks ago.

Hospital Coordinator of Modernization Elizabeth Chitolo has since advised that only 5 relatives to deceased persons should visit the mortuary in order to manage crowds.

Meanwhile the Lusaka City Council issued over 600 burial permits last week.

Council Director for Public Health Christopher Mtonga says the authority is now faced with challenges in monitoring funeral homes due to limited capacity.
