UTH Mortuary Out Of Space As Number Of Bids Reach 50 Per Day

THE University Teaching Hospital (UTH) Main Mortuary is full to capacity, according to authorities.

The hospital’s management says in addition to deaths which occur at the hospital the facility has also been receiving an average of 50 brought-in-dead (BIDs) every day since the third wave of Covid 19 started about 2 weeks ago.

Hospital Coordinator of Modernization Elizabeth Chitolo has since advised that only 5 relatives to deceased persons should visit the mortuary in order to manage crowds.
