Death in America and Grenada is booming

Undertakers laughing all the way to the bank - if undertakers laugh, that is. The amount of people dying in 2020 increased by 15.9% over 2019, according to the CDC. Death is big business! Same here, on average Grenada has about 3 deaths per day - 1,000 per year. Since mid August we've had 35 extra deaths from Covid, the hospital is overloaded! Today video circulating of the 40-foot refrigerated container they've just parked at Mt. Gay hospital, ready for the influx of bodies that the morgue can't hold. More people I know just died, it's DREAD!

Re: Death in America and Grenada is booming

One thing to remember undertakers in America do not have the capacity to handle all that death.  In the early days of the deadly disease, the state of NY was burying their dead.

Wish ah got on the zoom last night with the government of Grenada.  So much wanted to ask, the very same question RD ask months ago.  Just imagine a White person from Iowa who loves Grenada, was asking the government  of Grenada to prepare and plan for this, and nothing was done.  RD had more sense, than the entire leadership in Grenada.

Why the Convention center was not equipped with beds and ventilators?
