Covid-19 also paralyzes funeral services – Novinky.cz

“Our specificity is the provision of funeral services online, which is now proving to be very topical. A coronavirus? He is always present in some way. Whether the deceased was positive, or the surviving family is in quarantine, “describes Karolína Hrdličková, director of Funebralis.cz, in the Práva editorial office.

We don’t avoid coronavirus either, I’m now answering you from the home quarantine

According to her, in addition to increasing demand, these days it is also a problem to agree on the date and time of the ceremony, so that collisions occur more often. “With good will on both sides, however, a suitable solution is usually found,” Hrdličková added.

There are always more funerals for Dušičky

Her company is ready for increased interest in the coming days and weeks.

“For us, of course, the alpha and omega are the people who work with the deceased. If you are healthy, everything will work. But we do not avoid coronavirus either. I myself am now answering you from the domestic quarantine, “added the director of Funebralis.cz.

“We are ready to increase interest, including the number of coffins. But I still dare not judge that we have more work to do at the moment. In a fortnight. Namely, there are more funerals every year during this period. I judge from my thirty years of experience. When we look at the number of deaths, it is bigger every year these days. It is also related to the weather and the transition to winter time. When it retreats and cools down, everyone lacks the sun, even the healthy, let alone the sick, “Pavel Habarta, director of the Arte Funeral Service in Uherské Hradiště, told Práva.

“There are a lot of funerals now. We used to edit dead people, now we can’t do that anymore. But if this will be the case in the coming days and weeks, it remains to be seen, “Habarta added.

Neither he nor his colleagues are extremely afraid of covid-19.

“I’d like to say that we bury people who died with the covid. Even today I go to the hospital for two dead with a covid. However, we are not particularly afraid of coronavirus. Of course, we work protected in gloves, with drapes, we use disinfection, but we do not feel any extreme fear, “Habarta proves, adding that his funeral service will take care of about ten funerals a week.
