A rat infestation at Providence Hospital in Washington, DC has gotten so bad that the rats have started entering corpses according to a former worker.

The rats apparently enter the corpses through the anus and vagina after chewing their way through the hospital's body bags, Doris Kennard told Fox News.

"They were going into places like the anal area, the vaginal area, the pubic area of the males," Doris Kennard said. "That's where they would get in."

“They were getting inside of the bags," she said. "They were actually gnawing inside of the bags and leaving the remnants of where they were eating to get inside of the bags. Parts of the bag on the tray. I saw scratches on the bodies.”

Kennard had just won a $237,000 judgement for emotional distress against the hospital on July 18.

The hospital plans to appeal the verdict.
