Maltese Authorities have said that graves of people who died while they were positive for COVID-19 can only be opened after 10 years have passed.

In circumstances where it is possible for the deceased to be buried in the 24 hours after death, the Superintendent fr Public Health authorises the burial to happen within those 24 hours.

In circumstances where this is not possible, the process is a different one with specific measures being taken to ensure that no one will be at risk of contracting the virus.

Burials in public cemeteries are only happening at Addolorata Cemetery in Malta and at St. Mary’s Cemetery in Gozo.

39-year-old Zlatan scores a ninja esque goal

Jan 31 2021 Share
Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The man, the myth, the high-flying ninja-kicking legend.
 
We’ve always known that the Swede superstar is inclined to do the odd acrobatic kick here and there, but with the striker now 39-year-old, you couldn’t be blamed for thinking he would start to get a bit rusty.
 
But that’s not the case with Zlatan. It seems that, year after year, the AC Milan forward is pushing boundaries that we did not know existed – scoring 12 goals in just 10 appearances so far this season.
 
Now, the prolific striker that compares himself to Benjamin Button, has just posted a video of himself scoring a ninja esque goal during a training session with AC Milan on his social media – proving his critics wrong once again.
