Postmortem cleaning depends on many factors, but let's not rule out that working with contaminated site cleaning is not dangerous, especially postmortem sites.

In Postmortem Cleaning there is a risk of contamination, even with adequate protective equipment.

Blood, body fluids, saliva, semen, vaginal secretions, can contain viruses that can be transmitted to other people. If you come into contact with a contaminated environment after death and decomposition there is a risk of contamination.

There is a risk of HIV, Hepatitis B and C among other blood-borne diseases.

Bodily fluids such as vomit, sweat, tears or urine can contain viruses if there is blood in the fluid. However some risks are minor.

In case of cleaning postmortem contamination you must follow the following procedures, as you do not know if the person was contaminated by any disease.

You should immediately wash the affected area with soapy water and seek medical help so that you can take proper medicine.

HIV and Hepatitis exams must be done so that in case of contamination you immediately carry out the appropriate treatment.

People who are not prepared for post-mortem cleaning should not even try to do it, besides many curious and common companies try to perform this type of cleaning without the knowledge and adequate training.
