New Yorkers have been shocked by the dismal scenes: ambulance blaring car constantly down eerily deserted streets, Body Bags are moved with fork-lift trucks in refrigerated Trucks outside the hospitals, and new trenches dug on Hart's Island burials for possible mass.

The remote cemetery, accessible only by boat, is a place historically considered with care, because its mass graves without tombstones, the only unclaimed bodies. The City morgues can only handle so much before temporary burials for Covid-19 victims, once an absolute worst-case scenario, be necessary.

funeral-Directors talk openly about how scared and dejected, the spiking Death Toll has left. To buried even before This Week the record-breaking number of deaths to the wait some families had, a week or longer, and burn their love.
