Topic: Trade Embalmer

Richard Hirschman explains that as a trade embalmer, he began documenting these anomalies in late 2021 for his own records. He estimates that nearly 50% of the bodies he processed contained these abnormal clots. He expresses concern that hospitals and government agencies like the CDC and FDA are ignoring this physical evidence, as autopsies are rarely performed on these specific cases.

Richard Hirschman explains that many other embalmers are seeing the same fibrous clots but are afraid to speak out for fear of losing their jobs. As a trade embalmer who works for himself, Hirschman has more freedom to go public, whereas those employed by large corporate funeral homes face immediate termination for bringing "negative attention" to their facilities.
