CDC Suggests “Hermetically Sealed Caskets” for Ebola Victims

In a story for Yahoo News, the CDC says that in the event of an Ebola outbreak in the U.S., bodies of the deceased would be required to be buried within “hermetically sealed caskets”, which would prevent the escape of microbes during funerals.
An administrator of the Dallas Institute Of Funeral Service interviewed in the article states that he has never come across any such caskets in his industry, meaning, hermetically sealed coffins are NOT common in the slightest for burial …. http://www.dcclothesline.com

Bodies of Ebola victims shouldn’t be buried, they should be cremated, and promptly. Cremation will get rid of the infected corpses and sterilize anything that is left of them. The ashes can then be safely buried or disposed of in whatever manner the family desires, and they can have the funeral without fear of anyone becoming infected from a diseased corpse.
