Every casualty (dead or injured) should have been sent to hospital for doctors to check & declare death.
Instead, govt hastily sent piles of bodies elsewhere to reduce the death count.
Now relatives are finding people alive in the pile of #Balasore dead
People should understand that first priority of the Authoritarian govt. is to control the news and data.
Anything that can threaten govt, must be watered down, including the number of dead.
here is a dialogue from #Chernobyl mini series on HBO max.
After watching the visuals of presumed dead being thrown into trucks, this was the first thought that came to my mind.
I wondered how many of them would still be alive and in need of a resuscitation.
Only Doctors have the qualification to declare a person dead. No one else
