The 37 Military Hospital has announced plans to conduct a mass burial exercise for identified but unclaimed as well as unidentified bodies at the hospital’s morgue on September 1.
A statement issued by the Hospital explained the exercise is to decongest the mortuary which is affecting their day-to-day operation.
It has therefore encouraged relatives of the unclaimed bodies to visit the Department of Anatomical Pathology of the 37 Military Hospital from Thursday, August 3, to Thursday 31 August 2023 to claim the bodies.
“The 37 Military Hospital would like to bring to the attention of the general public a pending mass burial exercise for identified but unclaimed as well as unidentified bodies at the hospital’s morgue. The continued storage of these unclaimed bodies causes congestion in the mortuary and affects efficiency in its day-to-day operation. It must be noted that the last time the hospital conducted a mass burial was on 11 March 2017.
Meanwhile, the Hospital has also admonished the general public to assist in identifying the bodies before the September 1 exercise.
