Boom Times For Undertakers in Australia

Shut up and get your ‘booster!’

Undertakers are run off their feet with abnormally high numbers of Australians dying – and it’s not just because of Covid

‘There needs to be some research into why this is happening,’

  • Undertakers being kept busy with more Australians dying than normal this year 
  •  Melbourne undertaker Martin Masson sees an increase in 40-60 aged deaths
  •  Doctors not sure why more are dying but are concerned it mirrors the UK
  •  Possible factor is that people have avoided going to the doctor for check-ups

Undertakers are experiencing a rush of business with Australians dying in abnormally high numbers in a ‘worrying’ trend doctors can’t explain. 

Martin Masson, who is managing director of Tribute Funeral Services in the western Melbourne suburb of Ravenhall, said there is no shortage of work for him and others in the industry as official figures confirm Aussies are dying at a higher rate in 2022.

‘We’ve been consistently busy now since the first of this year,’ Mr Masson told Daily Mail Australia. 

‘We have certainly seen an increase in the need for our services as have done a lot of other directors.’

Mr Masson believed more working age Australians are dying but doesn’t have specific statistics to back this.  

‘We certainly have seen a distinct shift back to people in their 60s, 50s and even late or mid 40s and even younger,’ he said. 

Mr Masson revealed he had been asked a number of times about increased death rates but had no particular explanation other than Covid being ‘let rip’.

Mr Masson is either dense or just covering his ass.

However, he noted there had also been more deaths from cancer, heart attacks and other diseases, which he put down to the way Australians live.

Yep. Heart attacks. And those other -mysterious- diseases that we never had before we got the ‘jab’.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) confirms Australians have been dying at rate higher than normal this year.
