pathologist 復習

　イギリスの高層マンションで起きた大規模火災について，イギリス警察は，火災発生時，約350名が建物内にいたと結論付けました。現状では255名の生存が確認されており，少なくても80名が亡くなったとされております。　
　記事の中で気になった単語は"pathologist"です。『Wisdom英和辞典第三版』(三省堂)を調べると「病理学者」という意味がありました。事故からしばらくたちましたが，正確な人数の把握がいまだできていないようです。(Ume)

Grenfell fire: Police say 255 people survived the blaze

Investigating officers at the police briefing said the Grenfell investigation was the biggest the Met had conducted outside of counter-terrorism operations.
There are 250 specialist investigators working on the Met's operation, including the process of identifying those who died, and finding out how the fire started.
Scotland Yard said forensic pathologists were sieving through debris in the building to look for human remains.
"Phase one" of the operation - removing identifiable bodies - has now been completed.
All remains have been scanned for objects which may be used to identify victims, such as surgical implants, personal jewellery, glasses and teeth.
