When our patients don't get better :'(

Someone asked me what happens to our patients when they die. We send a team from Wash in to the ward fully donned in PPE. Everything around the person is washed with the 0.5% bleach solution. And the person is sprayed with the solution then placed in a body bag which is washed in chlorine. Then that bag is placed inside another bag and the outer bag is also sprayed down with chlorine. The body is then carried to the morgue where it will stay until the burial team can come. Next of kin is notified and the next time our psychosocial workers are in the village the person was from, the family is given a bag of rice.
The whole wash process after someone dies can take almost two hours. There is still so much about Ebola we do not know--but I believe all the experts agree that the viral load is highest in the body after a pt has died.
