A secret embalming center was located in a house on the outskirts of Mexico City with a couple of corpses on stretchers, one of them apparently a victim of COVID-19, authorities said Wednesday.
Mariela Gutiérrez, mayor of the municipality of Tecámac, north of the capital, said that the authorities are investigating since when the illegal embalming was carried out, those responsible disposed of the fluids extracted from the bodies in plastic containers.
"The above constitutes a very serious risk of contagion, in addition to a terrible disrespect for sanitary regulations," said the . . .
