Urgent Guidelines Regarding Janaza safety from Muslim

Assalamu alaikum,
Many people with suspected Corona symptoms and even typical X-ray or CT findings are not getting RT PCR (Corona test) done due to lack of awareness or fear of stigma and also are not following proper isolation guidelines.

And when they die, it's being considered as non-covid death and the ghusl and tadfeen is being handled as routine with no precautions and funeral gatherings with intermingling. Social distancing is not being followed generally.

This way the virus is spreading widely with each funeral giving rise to many more infections and janazas.

*To prevent this, the following guidelines are advised:*

1. Every death (Covid or non-covid) should be handled with full precautions.

All those who gather 4 giving condolences should strictly wear masks N maintain 6 feet distance with no hugging or handshakes.

2.D gatherings should be 4short time, in open spacesN with limited number of people.

3. People other thanD house members should avoid touchinDbody.

5. No one should directly touch the mayyit after this.

6. Janaza namaz should be prayed ideally in open place and maintaining 6 feet distance between each mussalli and good distance between the rows.

7. Avoid crowding while transfering to khabrastan and finish the burial as soon as possible and maintaining social distance, with masks on.

8. All those who participated in burial to take shower after going home and soak the clothes in soap water for 30 minutes before
