Go in Breh,
I'm curious to know
It's just a lot of unethical practices going on around the country with the hospital morgues and funeral homes. Back in march when it was really popping off, most of the bodies were getting cremated. But the cases became so overwhelming, the majority of the deaths were happening in hospitals and you had bodies on top bodies waiting to get cremated, no autopsy's, most of the bodies are not even being washed or properly cared for.
Now fast forward, lets say you don't have the funds to bury yourself or your loved one. Usually a funeral home with put you on a payment depending on what you you are wanting for a service, etc.. Now if you don't have the money within three or four days they will not work with you and are just cremating bodies. That's the reason they have so many bodies and they're monopolizing the hospitals not only in Dallas but in other places that are considered "hot spots" as well.
With covid stipends from the government coming directly to hospitals, some of that money is going to funeral homes based on how many bodies they get. So those greedy basstards are making money on top of money. Meaning If you die in a hospital and don't have insurance, they are calling a SPECIFIC funeral home to pick up the body, then that funeral is getting part of whatever stipend the hospital gets PLUS they are getting whatever money the family will pay for burial or cremation.. It's a hustle.
And by that I mean case in point, a week ago at Parkland(which is a county hospital) we had a 41 year old patient die from covid, his body stayed in the room for seven hours, that's right seven hours because Golden Gate Funeral home was so backed up picking up other bodies from area hospitals, but then they along with other funeral directors wanna cry foul media saying they are overwhelmed with bodies when they are getting about 15-30k from the hospitals plus whatever the family pays, they are cleaning up, not treating the dead with dignity and only worried about a check.
Dallas has become a hot spot with more higher cases EVERYDAY, even more covid patients and I don't think its part of the "2nd wave", I think its still the first which why the GOV and Lt gov are making trips here every week. Talk to my colleagues in NY and its even worse with how the deceased is being treated at these hospitals and funeral homes.
