Covid-19 crisis worsen in Indian – daily thousands deaths - People throwing dead bodies in Ganga river
Scores of dead bodies have been found floating down the Ganges River in eastern India as the country battles a ferocious surge in coronavirus infections.
Authorities said Tuesday they hadn’t yet determined the cause of death of those whose bodies were found in the river.
Health officials working through the night Monday retrieved 71 bodies, officials in Bihar state said.
Images on social media of the bodies floating in the river prompted outrage and speculation that they were the corpses of COVID-19 victims. Authorities performed autopsies Tuesday but said they could not yet confirm the cause of death because of decomposition.
