[QUOTE="JCMaloney, post: 6968239, member: 2821"] Depends on the case and circumstances of death, I can only say what has changed locally. The majority of our Covid deaths are hospital certified after tests so wouldn`t require an autopsy unless requested by the certifying doctor. We do a lot of non-invasive (MRI Scanned) autopsy`s they are still going ahead. Routine autopsies are continuing, those are Coroner referrals, sudden deaths/suicides etc. The mortuary are working under very stringent guidelines, primarily because any deceased from the community setting may have it, so all are treated as though they have. Social distancing for the staff, full PPE, air extraction for any Aerosol Generating Procedures`s such as removal of pacemakers etc. There is whole section of guidance on [URL="http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-guidance-for-care-of-the-deceased/"]www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-guidance-for-care-of-the-deceased/[/URL] We have stopped doing all vitreous humor toxicology analysis as the sample is currently considered unsafe to use.
