Medical examiner gives unclaimed bodies to science

For November:

A medical examiner's office in Chicago set a two-week deadline for bodies to be claimed at the morgue, or risk their being donated for medical research. People claim that the time frame is short, but in response, people have argued that holding bodies for longer than two weeks becomes really complicated, which include identification, investigation, embalming, etc.


Do you agree with this policy? If someone doesn't claim a corpse in two weeks, it will be donated to science?
