警察局接到一通电话：一家殡仪馆外停着两辆卡车，散发出可怕的恶臭。警方迅速赶到
现场，发现了一个惊悚的事实：车里装着数十具已经腐烂的尸体。
这不是电影情节！真实的一幕发生在纽约布鲁克林。
综合《纽约时报》、《纽约邮报》、CNN报道，当地时间4月29日上午11点，在布鲁克林
的尤蒂卡大街的一家殡仪馆外，警察在2辆散发恶臭的卡车中发现了数十具腐烂的尸体。
除了这2辆冷藏失效的卡车装着腐尸外，现场还有另外2辆冷藏正常的卡车也存放着尸体
，另外有1辆卡车里则塞满了空棺材。
《纽约邮报》的报道援引消息人士的话称，从车中流出的液体散发出恶臭，这使得周边
商店的店主报警求助，这些尸体本应被送往火葬场，但没有被取走。
布鲁克林区区长埃里克·亚当斯（Eric L. Adams）于当天下午5时15分左右到达克莱克
利殡仪馆外，此时警察已经封锁了街道，对卡车进行调查。
亚当斯说：“看起来是那辆卡车已经装满了，他们试图用U-Haul的车作为补充。”他还
补充道，这件事对家庭成员们造成了心理创伤。
当天晚上，纽约市几个机构也参与了对卡车的调查行动，这条街道的一部分已经对公众
关闭。
殡仪馆隔壁大楼的业主约翰·德佩特罗（John DePietro）表示，他周二注意到有五辆
车停在殡仪馆外。他说：“他们的货车和卡车里都有尸体。这些尸体装在尸袋里，一个
压着一个。”
德佩特罗还补充，他无法“肯定地判断”车上有多少尸体，“但它们都被塞满了。”
《纽约时报》指出，纽约市的医院太平间、墓地、火葬场在最近几周面临沉重的压力。
其中殡仪馆面对的压力最为沉重，一边是不断送来的尸体，一边是无法迅速火化导致的
尸体积压。被夹在这中间的殡仪馆不得不使用冷藏拖车来存放尸体，有些则直接把小教
堂改成临时停尸房，用大功率空调来制冷。
一位不愿透明姓名的官员向《纽约时报》表示，这家殡仪馆在制冷停止正常运作后，仍
在使用卡车装尸体。纽约卫生部门在声明中指出，殡仪馆均被要求在适当条件下存放等
待处理的尸体，并应该遵守相应的感染预防控制措施。

因为你不明白在美国，无论好坏都是透明的，都可以拿出来说，任何的决定，无论对错，都是可以辩论的。比如复工的事，人们可以拿枪去州政府示威，表达自己的看法。所以无论将来发生什么，大家对过程是了解的。你可以把总统换掉，但你不能说总统做的决定不代表人民（至少部份人民）的看法。而中国政府做的任何决定都没有这种合法性，因为谁都不知道这个决定是怎样做出的。
所以美国做的任何事情，无论对错都是可以“洗地”的。
呵呵，不说历史你估计都不记得发达国家当初是怎么发展起来的
和所谓的民主自由有个屁关系
对，印度二战前是被剥削的殖民地。所以二战后独立至今好了那么久的民主社会，他们成发达国家了吗？
那你说个毛
🛋️ 沙发板凳
媒体写的太客观， 不够煽情。 但是美国人也不喜欢煽情的。 说实话我也不喜欢whiny
看了，好恐怖
如果都是covid 病人的尸体，不知会造成传播不
尸体的处理程序绝对有问题。
想不出美国是这种处理尸体的方式，从医院或家里拉出来就应该严格密封了吧。

谁会知道哪个车装过dead body？
大家的记忆力有限，过几天一切都会正常。要不新闻再把三胖炒一下？
被这个图片吓到了，连个裹尸袋都没有吗？
谁知道这些车装过尸体啊？消费者要哭死了好吧？
这个医生的妹妹说有人在ER waiting room 就死了。 只要不及时收治，医疗永远不崩溃.
大脑缺氧四分钟，昏迷中。 孩子剖腹产。太可怜了。
我日，醫療沒崩潰，運尸體的反而不行?垃圾
很多人就是恨国党，逢中必反。。让他们客观点根本办不到
中国是火化为主的国家，有远比美国多得多的焚化炉，即使这样武汉都应付不过来。
你这么简单粗暴地比较纽约跟武汉，你有没有良心。除非动用军队挖坑用火焰喷射器烧，那更加要被骂死。
现在来说，就是纽约的殡仪馆被击穿了。
想当然了吧，挖个大坑埋几百具倒有可能，烧几百具，那附近还能闻么？你没看火葬场都是高高的烟囱？
华尔街不义之财赚多了，福祸自招。
武汉哪有这样的事情 你瞎说什么
就是，话不能乱讲，不造谣不传谣哦。武汉不是只死了3千多么，哪里来的惨了，拿出正规报道来再喷。独运轮吧，就不要来搅和了，谁信啊
找个无人海岛，挖个大坑，灌满汽油，烧个三天三夜，然后盖好土就行了。
对。咋的，还不一样挡不住你过来。
真是洋装虽然穿在身， 我心依然是中国心
这要是国内新闻保证飘兰加章很快能盖100层以上的高楼，美国的就没人理，真不知到那些ID是不是真的住在美国
那不就说明民主好啊，那你还看不上民主制度啥。要钱有钱，香甜空气都有。你厉害国那么厉害，用钱用空气都留不住你。
有点基本常识好不好？中国焚化炉比美国多，但中国正常死亡人口也比美国多啊！
任何地方的焚化炉都是根据当地人口建设的，而正常情况下，一个地方的死人数量是基本稳定的。。。多建炉子根本没用/纯浪费钱。。。
所以只要非正常死亡的人数一多，甚至都不用增加多少，殡仪馆/火葬场这种地方必然会被击穿！
而且真要说起来，美国这种长期城市人口稳定的地方，火葬场的surplus capacity多半要多过中国这种快速城市化/城市人口快速增长的地区。。火葬场在城市建设中优先度是很低的。。
所以增加一样的非正常死亡人数，多半中国先被击穿。。
都是些基本的常识性东西。。
上次一堆人在武汉火葬场那些贴里上蹿下跳的时候就扫盲过好几次。。
是啊。。虽然需要火化比例不同，但只要人口总数稳定，当地需要火化的数量依然是稳定的，当地供给和需求也必然是相匹配的，并不会有太多额外的“产能”。
所以遇到疫情，很容易就被击穿。。
中国虽然火花比例高，但一样不会有大量闲置/富裕的火化“产能”。。
特别是中国城市化速度太快，城市人口增长太快，火葬场的火化能力应该是相对美国这里更加紧张，火葬场在平时的利用率/开工率更高。。所以更容易被击穿
2018年纽约火化率是40%
武汉火化率是57%
武汉殡仪馆被击穿，纽约就不能被击穿？
国内传染病是强制火化，顶锅盖说一句，这一点规定还是国内比较科学
你有没有看出你的逻辑错误？你这个论点的前提是武汉纽约死亡率一样的情况下，武汉的火化率才会超过正常火化能力，才会出现先于纽约殡仪系统被击穿的情况。
土鳖官方报道的武汉新冠死亡率3869例，这个新增死亡率怎么能够击穿一个平时应对一千一百万人口的城市的殡仪系统？
纽约可是死了13,168人。
纽约当然能被击穿，也一定会被击穿。。
我的意思是，任何发生疫情的城市，殡仪馆/火葬场都会撑不住。。
纽约如此，当初的武汉也如此，所以觉得当初那些人在武汉火葬场被击穿的帖子里上窜小跳，简直是莫名其妙/缺乏基本常识。。
+1 真的是洋装虽然穿在身，我心依然是那什么，整天指责观点不同的就是5毛，说得不是自己吗？
有些人就是那么双标，没办法
华人怪现象，真的
除了拿(不管谁的)钱发帖的，说明其他人关心国内比美国多啊
那你咋不移民去第一民主大国印度，多有面子啊？别人说得很明白，还在瞎掰
击穿24小时不停歇的火葬场，还是很有难度的。不是武汉只去世了8000个人吗？至于火葬场加班24小时都不够？
