We feel overwhelmed when we lose someone dear to us. Sadness and anguish sink in our hearts, and the notion of never seeing that person again is intolerable.
Despite these sensations and the desire to kiss the person we have lost, Dr. Viktor Ivanovik of Moldova discusses the hazards of kissing the corpse. His video, in which he explores this extremely delicate issue, has sparked extensive discussion and controversy on social media.
According to him, around nine hours after d3ath, the corpse begins to decay, a natural process in which microorganisms from the dissolving tissues emerge.
These germs can be harmful to anyone who come into touch with the body, especially through kissing.
He acknowledges that this tradition is viewed as a final farewell and a kind of respect for the departed, but he feels people should be aware of the dangers they put themselves in by inadvertently exposing themselves to hazardous infections.
As predicted, people’s opinions were mixed.
“I kissed my father and would do it again, regardless of the risk! “He’s my father!” one individual exclaimed. Others, however, welcomed his counsel and commented that they would reconsider their decision to kiss someone who had di*d as a final goodbye, regardless of their emotional relationship to the deceased.
Dr. Ivanovik emphasized the issue of one’s sense of smell being affected if kissing someone who passed away.
The body’s decomposition can emit an unpleasant stench, which may linger in one’s recollection for longer than intended. Some people describe a considerable alteration in their sense of smell and taste following such an act, adding a dimension of complexity to an already difficult departure.
“Honestly, I don’t think anyone can resist kissing their parent on the hand or forehead for the last time. “I kissed my father’s hand for the last time,” a follower wrote.
