I do not know that Africa has undertakers, and traditionally, families prepare and bury their own dead. At this time, to control the spread of disease, governments in the affected countries have directed that families do NOT prepare their dead for burial in the traditional manner. Specially trained teams are sent out to collect the dead and bury them.
This video shows the "burial boys" at work. Notice how the villagers respond to them with anger and mistrust. It's really hard to impose disease control measures when they conflict with traditional culture.
In Africa, as elsewhere, there is a whole range of responses to the outbreak. Some people insist on adhering to cultural traditions, while others leave bodies where they died and give them wide berth.
I have been aware of this. By “undertakers” I was referring to the burial teams, not anything like the standard US undertaker.
