Wuhan is gradually unblocking, and the backlog of ashes that have been in the city for two months has begun to be distributed, and funeral parlours line up. According to local news, the authorities required that the ashes should be collected by the unit or the community to accompany the ashes for the purpose of maintaining stability.
According to official information, the funeral homes in Wuhan opened to collect ashes on 23 March 2020. On 26 March 2020, photos of long queues of family members of funeral homes began to be exposed. Local citizens broke the news on the Internet. The scene was full of security guards and plainclothes police. As long as someone raised their mobile phones to take pictures, plainclothes rushed over to stop them. In the depressed atmosphere, the family members did not even cry.
There are also many people in Wuhan who say that local funeral homes and cemeteries have a daily limit for business, and they close when the limit is reached. Moreover, family members cannot even go to the funeral home to receive ashes, and must be accompanied by a unit or community.
One of the family members of the deceased complained online that the authorities had turned a natural disaster into a man-made disaster, and how many people had lost their precious lives. So far no one has pursued blame, but devoted all their attention to dealing with the families of the dead. It is officially stipulated that those who have a unit must be accompanied by the unit to receive ashes and burial, and those without a unit are responsible for the community. Units and the community will come forward in batches to make appointments to schedule appointments so that the government can deal with the ashes in batches to maintain social stability, prevent family members from gathering in large numbers, and pursue their rights collectively.
The netizen also said that he had previously called Wuchang Funeral Home several times to ask when he could collect his father's ashes. Wuchang Funeral Home only verified the information and said that he must wait for the notification of the epidemic prevention command before family members can receive the ashes in batches.
A netizen also painfully recalled that when his old father was only fractured, he sent his father back to Wuhan for medical treatment. As a result, his father was infected with COVID-19 in the hospital. He died 16 days after, and his son would regret it all his life.
Netizens also complained that the authorities promised to bear the personal treatment costs of the confirmed patients but Wuhan hospitals still deducted the prepaid personal expenses.
In addition, Radio Free Asia quoted Wuhan resident Chen Yaohui to disclose that government officials promised to provide 3,000 yuan for funeral allowances in exchange for the silence of the families of the deceased in Wuhan.
Wuhan has announced its unblocking on 8 April 2020. The date is scheduled after the Qingming Festival (4 April). Not only that, the official also announced that all mourning and grave sweeping activities should be banned, and the ban will remain until 30 April 2020.
Wuchang Funeral Home notified that a daily limit of 500 ashes should be distributed. From 23 March 2020, the distribution will be completed before the Qingming Festival. Some netizens have calculated that at this rate, the funeral home will need to issue a total of about 6,000 ashes, and eight funeral homes in Wuhan will need to distribute tens of thousands, far exceeding the official announced death toll.
