Doctors, nurses, and funeral home staff use gloves, masks, and other protective equipment for a reason: death does not stop bacterial activity.
Medical protocols recommend not touching the deceased directly without protection, and even less kissing the body, especially if the death was caused by an infectious disease (COVID-19, tuberculosis, HIV, hepatitis, etc.).
Stick a pin in this place in the house and protect your home from bad energies.

Although a goodbye kiss may seem like an act of love, mental health experts warn that:
It can further traumatize the bereaved.
The image of physical contact with a lifeless body can be negatively etched in memory.
It delays the natural process of grief and acceptance.
And the children? Be very careful!
