The concentration of sulfur in the Human Body is only 0.3% of body mass. That is not sufficient body mass to raise the air content index of sulfur in the atmosphere what this study claims.
What is, is that China uses high sulfur content coal to generate electricity. More people staying home, locked down, using electric heat to warm their apartments during winter 24/7 will actually use more electricity, requiring more coal burning than normal. Chinese Coal burning electrical plants are located on the peripheries of the cities.
That is a more logical explanation for the increase in sulfur in the atmosphere than burning human bodies.

It’s not clear the average Chinese household can afford home electric heat. Per capita income is around $8K. That’s about $700 a month. Median salaries are likely far lower, perhaps $300-$400, because of the lopsided income distribution there.
