Tom Wolforth’s prime mission was to appropriately handle the remains and make sure they could be reburied. He has been working closely with the tribe and the municipality to address their concerns. One concern, Martin said, was that these exposed remains could pose a risk of disease, especially if the dead had been buried during the time of the 1918 flu pandemic. But Wolforth assured them that if properly handled this shouldn’t be a problem.</p><img src='https://leonetwork-staging.azurewebsites.net/en/attachments/thumbnail/9CBD4FBB-1341-4434-B5EC-F4E0B5FADD6E'/><p><a href='https://leonetwork-staging.azurewebsites.net/posts/show/44D1BC48-3CA4-4F13-A66E-B1CD04AA220E'>Read more...</a></p></div>63.47806 -162.03917uuid:BB898B04-240E-4A53-89DF-C204C040BE76Landslide Disrupts Traffic in North East2022-11-17T00:00:00Z2024-03-29T10:55:34ZLEO Networkhttps://leonetwork-staging.azurewebsites.netask.leonetwork@gmail.com<div><h3>Grenivík, Northeast, Iceland</h3><p>November 17, 2022</p><p>Authorities state that although landslides are not common in this area, avalanches are.
