Exeter catacombs identified as potential swine flu mortuary
"Exeter city council is considering using 19th century catacombs to store the bodies of swine flu victims if the outbreak worsens.
They’ve identified the empty underground burial chambers in Bartholomew Street, currently used as a tourist attraction, as a potential mortuary.
A council spokesman said the plan would be implemented if the crematorium and cemeteries could not keep up with funeral demands."
