在美国，死无葬身之地的新冠病患！_风闻

导读：在美国这个典型的资本主义国家，有钱才有一切，没钱就会死无葬身之地！很多美国人不仅“病不起”，更加“死不起”！

据《华尔街日报》报道，今年早些时候在纽约市死于冠状病毒的600多人的尸体仍留在用作临时停尸房的冷冻卡车上。

据纽约市首席体检官办公室称，布鲁克林海滨临时停尸间内约有650具尸体，该办公室对报纸说，纽约市要么找不到很多死者的家，要么他们的家人负担不起适当的葬礼。

尸检人员告诉《华尔街日报》，该办公室无法找到230人的亲戚。该办公室说，但是财政拮据使许多家庭无法安置其亲属的遗体。

据纽约州丧葬董事协会称，该市的丧葬援助从5月份的900美元增加到了1,700美元，仍然大大低于传统丧葬服务的平均费用9,000美元左右。据《华尔街日报》报道，典型的火化服务费用约为6,500美元。

纽约低收入居民可能有资格获得经济援助，以支付已故的低收入纽约居民的丧葬费。在COVID-19公共卫生紧急情况下，如果总费用不超过$ 3,400，则可用$ 1,700。

Bodies of more than 600 people who died from the coronavirus in New York City earlier this year remain in freezer trucks used as temporary morgues, The Wall Street Journal has reported.

About 650 bodies remain inside makeshift morgues on the Brooklyn waterfront, according to the city’s Office of Chief Medical Examiner, which told the newspaper that the city either cannot find families for many of the dead or their families cannot afford a proper burial.

Medical examiner officials told The Wall Street Journal that the office has not been able to find relatives of 230 people. But financial constraints have prevented many families from being able to relocate the bodies of their relatives, the office said.

The city increased its burial assistance to $1,700 from $900 in May, which still falls significantly behind the average cost of traditional burial services of roughly $9,000, according to the New York State Funeral Directors Association. A typical cremation with service costs about $6,500, The Wall Street Journal reported.
