Dumb as hell.

[I want the USA back]

Obviously they will close the parks to joggers, dog walkers, etc.

[cld51860]

Yeah, is it really necessary? Another scare tactic?

[HangnJudge]

Burn piles work, lots of excess Natural Gas, just say’n

[canuck_conservative]

More irresponsible Big Media scare-mongering.

Gotta make this look as bad as possible for Trump!!

[real saxophonist]

HAHA! Bury them in Central Park, right under Chelsea’s window.

[Ouchthatonehurt]

That is possibly the dumbest idea I have ever heard.

[John W]

That’s what I’m thinking. He should have tried this one a week or two ago.

Just use the East River, like criminals in the Bronx did in the 70s

So I guess they don’t need the 45 tractor trailer refrigerator trucks delivered last week? Who’s going to pay for that?

[mass55th]

Why? People die of the flu every day. Are they tossed in mass graves? What a crock of $hit.

[va22030]

why not cremate ?

What an idiot....NYC has about 150K people die a year, I am not sure with an extra 3K deaths it is even close to necessary to start thinking about this. If deaths spike up, then maybe, but all this is is fear-mongering at this point - which I guess is the whole point.

Even if you had to make contingency plans like this, doesn’t mean you need to go on twitter and start hyping them.

There’s not a meat locker anywhere in the country that can be repurposed?

“NYC considering using parks as temporary burial sites: city councilman..”

New York criminals do that all the time.

[GSWarrior]

Designer news meant to fan the public flames of panic.

[ScottinVA]

Or just leave the bodies by the curb, as was done during the Spanish Flu plague.

[lurk]

Why don’t they just hand the bodies over to the families? Let them take care of them.
