Man films Brooklyn Hospital putting dead bodies in an 18 Wheeler

OP - Poster R 1 of the thread I linked basically said the same idiotic thing, that the deaths may not be from the virus.

Unbelievable.

It's a modern version of the plague years push carts and cries of "bring out the dead".

Is it for real?

dis is fa ree yau

Just think,were it not for social media you can bet your ass we would hear about none of this .

I just wish he’d told us whether it was for real or not

What else are they going to do with the bodies? A hospital morgue isn't very large. Get back to me when we are hitting Italy level deaths. Right now the the whole of NYC deaths is less than one day in Italy.

This is my borough

The man narrating that video is more articulate than 90% of DL posters.

R8 you’re a transplant.

I think he keeps saying "This is for free. This is for FREE y'all." Meaning don't bother yourself with expensive burial costs, the city will handle it.

No he keeps saying it’s for real @R11

I am not his family

Is this why DLers don't like when someone uses "y'all" in a post?

That huge semi for one body? And why he so conspicuous about it? If they had anything to hide, surely they’d at least be loading the truck under the cover of darkness or in a back alley.

It's probably more fair to say, if not for Datalounge, you, R5, "would hear about none of this". It's been in the news that the CDC is using DMORT trucks outside of NY hospitals. These trucks are hosing bodies awaiting autopsy before they are released to the families.

This has been going on for years, people not claiming dead bodies and cities having to cart them away to a potter's field.

I hate R3 for making me laugh so hard. 🤣😂😁😄

Is this for real!? Was the Dyatlov pass incident for real? I sure wish somebody would start a thread about that.

Crisis actors

I’m not saying the situation isn’t going from bad to worse, but this doesn’t ring true.

Fuck off, doomsdayer, I'm not scared! This hyperpanic is ridiculous and senseless!

THE DAILY WIRE. You fucking, worthless cunt!

Now C-19 done gone and keelt Joe Diffie!

I've been to that hospital. I'm pretty sure they were doing that before this all happened. Good people work there, but it's a shit hospital

In Spain they are putting bodies in an ice skating arena...a few thousand.

Are some of you kidding? There is no room in a hospital morgue for more than a few bodies...they have been carting them away in trucks...how could you not know that?

Stupid fat whore like you R23 should die first from tripping yourself while hoarding toilet paper!

Drs. Eran Bendavid and Jay Bhattacharya, medical experts from Stanford University, are concerned that death toll estimates from the coronavirus are far too high.

In an editorial in the Wall Street Journal, the doctors write that while they do encourage social distancing and other procedures to help slow the spread, the extreme measures taken to shut down the economy and close businesses may be based on flawed research.

Ring-a-round the rosie, A pocket full of posies, Ashes! Ashes! We all fall down.

This is what happens during a pandemic. I hope tg there's not a second wave as they are usually even more deadly.

Fuck you, R28. The second you choose the Daily Wire as a source, you're a cockroach.

R31 the message is there, only different publishers. You deathfat fucktard can just panic until you croak!!! I'm a cockroach, you're an overreacting beached whale.

Fuck off, scaremongers! I'm not fat and old and I'm not fucking scared! Stop this lockdown insanity!!!! Old fat farts and heavy smokers are gonna die anyway, just let them die sooner!!!

Then choose other sources, douchebag. The fact that you would automatically link to the Daily Wire is stupid as hell

A doctor "leaked" some footage to the NY Times of a similar thing at Elmhurst hospital in NY (linked). It's fairly typical in a case like this as the hospital mortuary doesn't usually need to store bodies - they're taken away by the medical examiner/funeral home.

That said, there's a city in Britain which is converting an aircraft hangar into a temporary mortuary to hold thousands of bodies.

How some of you are so stupid, that you don't know there are many deaths from this virus...you must be retarded.

Aww, that's sad that Joe Diffie died of CV-19. He was a great singer. He'd gotten pretty obese, but years ago he was one hot piece of man.

Diffie in his heydays.

There are other sources, you fat blind, old fart! If you can't see them it's your obesity-induced eye problem!

R23 R31 R33 = the retard who uploaded the video. Stop scaring people, fat fucktard!

Just google mapped it and he was outside of Brooklyn hospital when he videoed it...NY plates on the cars and typical NY weather this time of year

Elmhurst Hospital does have refrigerated trailers on site because its morgue is full. Other hospitals may as well. This isn't a surprise or anything that's being hidden; it's an unfortunate necessity during this health crisis.

Call me when they start loading them with pitchforks.

There's a related thread on this topic; an article from that thread is below.

R7 We're six weeks behind Italy.

Six weeks of preparation squandered by inaction, malevolence and incompetence led right from the top.

We ain't seen nothin' yet.

R38, I SEE THEM, that's why I wondered why your stupid ass would START with the Daily Wire. That's a site you link to if your fetish is fat granny porn. Do you bust a nut thinking of your nana, R38?

One week you're fine, one week later you're a statistic. C'est la vie.

R43, And your post has fuck all to do with what op posted NOW. Get back to me in a few weeks.

As long as we're not paying for Harry and Meghan's security, I’m okay with this. Priorities, you know.

Europe is basically locked up. Sweden is behind as is Russia but both are closing their borders. It is the only way at this moment to slow down the virus from spreading around. ER units are tight with equipments all over the world. I don’t understand why this basic effective operation hasn’t been ordered in US. Yes, there are large cities but also large police and military units. I’m afraid US will be in deep chaos very soon. I hope I am wrong.

Honestly this is a sign that all that traveling and jumping around is BAD

This is for real as well ... but so much more enjoyable!

Big fucking deal-no space so in a refrigerated truck.

What are they supposed to do-throw them in a dumpster?

I live in the sticks and have to care for an elderly relative who will die if they get the virus so I have picked out a spot in the corner of a field to bury them when that happens. It's called being practical.

WHEN that happens?

Why wait?

I wish Shirley Q. Liquor would commentate on this horridness.

Wow, when I first saw this after OP posted, it only had a round 250 views. It's now over 15K

More horribleness from the same funeral home:

Zeqway Clarke was in the back pew in the upstairs chapel at the Andrew D. Cleckley Funeral Home in Brooklyn when he chanced to gaze under the coffin and see what looked like a bare foot.

“You could see it,” he later told The Daily Beast. “You could actually look under the casket and see it. I asked somebody else, ‘Is that a foot?’”

Clarke was there on April 9 with his wife and daughters and a small number of relatives in masks and gloves, bidding farewell to her grandfather, 88-year-old Francois Jules. The pastor continued conducting the service as Clarke gazed at what was indeed a bare foot visible beneath the hem of the cloth backdrop closing off the front of the room.

At the end of the service, Clarke went up for a final parting moment with Jules, a military veteran and retired graveyard security guard, who was recovering from a stroke in Kings County Hospital when he was fatally struck by COVID-19. Clarke used the moment by the coffin to raise his cellphone above the cord on which the backdrop hung.

“I stuck the phone up and took a picture,” the 39-year-old entrepreneur recalled.

He did not see the result until he returned to his seat and checked his phone.

“It was just bodies, bodies on the floor, people on top of each other,” he said.

The picture, which he later shared with The Daily Beast, showed at least eight bodies had been left haphazardly on the floor. They were only partly covered by sheets or quilts and appeared to be unclothed. Three of the faces were visible.

“Horrified,” Clarke said of his reaction.

Twenty days later, the whole city was horrified when police responded to complaints of a foul odor coming from two trucks parked in front of this same funeral home. They discovered dozens of bodies decomposing inside.

The owner, 41-year-old Andrew Cleckley, told police that he had been unable to get cemeteries and crematories to accept enough bodies to keep his facility from overflowing.

“I am out of space,” he was quoted telling The New York Times. “Bodies are coming out of our ears.”

Clarke lives in the neighborhood, and he had walked past the funeral home with his daughters, aged 15 and 16, as the pandemic was intensifying. He noticed that the usual hearse and men in suits and ties had been replaced by rental trucks and men in work clothes.

The daughters now saw their father’s cellphone photo of what lay just beyond the backdrop behind the coffin.

“My daughters said, ‘What?’” Clarke reported. “That’s the first time my children actually seen something like that.”

“As a parent you want them to know that’s not right,” he later said. “You want them to know people should be treated with respect.”

He noted to himself that there was no air conditioning in the chapel.

“Not cool,” he said in more than one sense. “In regular room temperature like that, what’s going to happen?”

As he and his family resumed sheltering in place, Clarke considered reporting to the authorities what he had photographed.

“But there was so much going on with the pandemic, social distancing, I figured it hell or high water to get in contact with somebody,” he recalled.

He decided just to post the photographic evidence on Facebook. Some commenters noted that funeral homes were overwhelmed. Most comments were unalloyed outrage.

Then came the discovery of the decomposing bodies in the trucks outside the funeral home.

Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams responded to the scene. He later said that much the same is happening throughout New York as the usual progression from hospital and morgue to funeral parlor to cemetery and crematorium has backed up.

“We have an emergency going on right now,” Adams told The Daily Beast. “I’m surprised we don’t have cars stuffed with bodies.”

He added, “There is so much more we could do to better move this situation forward.”

To that end, he is establishing a Bereavement Task Force that will begin meeting next week.

Good God.....😞

Fuhgeddaboudit!

R56 TELL me that bastard piece of shit is in jail now !

Every bad thing that's happening is Trump's fault. I hate him so much.

R59, the city pulled their license.

Flatlands, so no surprise. Garbage neighborhood.

The pictures at R56 are horrific.
