摘要

2020年3月19日,葡萄牙宣布进入“紧急状态”,原因是出现了严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2 (SARS-CoV-2),感染呈指数级增长,死亡率和发病率都很高。从那时起,到2021年4月30日,又宣布了15次紧急状态,在此期间,该国确认与COVID-19相关的死亡人数为16,974人。在上述期间,遵循了在尸检室、停尸房和墓地处理疑似病例的准则。但是,没有制定关于在墓地挖掘期间和之后处理人类遗骸的程序。此外,人们对病毒在死后人体组织中的生存和空间分布知之甚少。考虑到葡萄牙法律规定的最低期限即将结束,墓地的埋葬空间有限,很快就会开始挖掘被埋葬的人,作者认为反思这个问题很重要。

Among Bodies: Portuguese Cemeterial Exhumations Three Years after a Pandemic
On 19 March 2020, a “state of emergency” was declared in Portugal due to the manifestation of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), with an exponential rate of infection and high mortality and morbidity rates. Since then, the state of emergency was declared a further fifteen times until 30 April 2021, during which a total of 16,974 deaths associated with COVID-19 were acknowledged in the country. Over the aforementioned period, guidelines were followed regarding the handling of suspected cases in autopsy rooms, mortuaries, and cemeteries. However, no procedures have been established regarding the handling of human remains during and after cemeterial exhumations. Furthermore, little is known about the virus survival and its spatial distribution in postmortem human tissues. Given that the minimum Portuguese legal period of inhumation is ending and cemeteries have been facing limited burial space and soon will start exhuming buried individuals, the authors believe it is important to reflect on the matter.
