In the video, he warns people not to kiss deceased loved ones during farewells, saying it’s a serious health risk.
Ivanovik explains that about nine hours after death, the body starts to break down and release bacteria that can cause health problems, including a loss of smell if you kiss the deceased.
The video has received mixed reactions. Some people appreciate the health advice and admit they hadn’t thought about the risks. Others are emotionally resistant, sharing personal stories. One person commented, “I kissed my father and would do it again, no matter the risk! He is my father!”
Dr. Ivanovik’s message emphasizes the importance of balancing cultural traditions with health concerns. His video shows how social media can help raise awareness about important health issues that are often ignored.
