You are not too young to know that. It used to be done, especially in Fanti area where a man takes a woman for granted and did not perform marital rites. If the wife died, the husband was forced to sleep with the wife.

We should practice basic hygiene. Where in Ghana do people sleep with dead husbands?

It is true, handshake can transmit the disease. If some one handled and touched the body fluids or tissue of a sick or dead person and shakes hand with another, the virus can easily transmitted. No wonder in the affected countries, people apparently put on gloves. Joe Turkey, Don't use your ignorance to confuse people.
