cord-297681-m0cckidw	Na, Joo-Young	[Secondary Publication] Standard Operating Procedure for Post-mortem Inspection in a Focus on Coronavirus Disease-19: the Korean Society for Legal Medicine	2020-08-13		.txt	text/plain	2813	139	48	The Korean Society for Legal Medicine, a highly specialized organization responsible for post-mortem examination and death investigation, aims to protect multiple staff-related post-mortem examinations and prevent the spread of COVID-19 in medical institutions and communities to improve social stability through this guideline for COVID-19 post-mortem inspections. The risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection during post-mortem inspection of a dead body is relatively lower than that in the case of medical procedures or treatments because dead bodies do not cough and spread droplets. Due to the nature of postmortem inspection, in most cases, there is no or insufficient ante-mortem information, so collaboration with investigative agencies, local governments, and relevant public health centers is essential to determine the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection. 1) After confirming the identity of the deceased, if it is necessary to confirm whether he or she has the possibility of infection with COVID-19, request confirmation to the public health center through the police in charge, and proceed with the post-mortem inspection.	./cache/cord-297681-m0cckidw.txt	./txt/cord-297681-m0cckidw.txt
