>>16455687The first LTC facility near Seattle that got hit by the early Covid strains, where almost everyone died quickly, as I recall the average stay between arrival and death was somewhere around 6-7 months. A bad flu can create situations like this. The kid who thought he saw socks and shoes, the black one was a severely frostbitten foot and the blue one was either the same or a settling of blood. Frostbitten was probably a no fixed address who got drunk and lost outside. This happens a lot in Russia. We have more resources here to keep morgues a bit more cheerful, and maintain more of them, but imagine you've got a budget to pay for 10 employees, and 50 bodies show up all at once. It's going to get messy. They'll get a final wash after processing and a shroud of some sort and then likely a trench.
