ABSTRACT
As the number of positive cases for the novel Coronavirus continues to increase, so do the deaths associated with it. There exists a theoretical risk of infection during handling of the dead bodies and standard infection control practices should be followed when handling such bodies. The government has allowed both the burial and cremation as per the faith. However there is a standard procedure that all health workers and family members need to adhere to. This article highlights some of the guidelines recommended for managing dead bodies of COVID-19 patients. © 2020, Indian Academy of Pediatrics. All rights reserved.
