That being said, sunlight is the best disinfectant. Any demolition that doesn't first include police and the coroner removing Yuuko's body with a formal burial service is not going to set her spirit to rest. If her sister cannot bring herself to see that Yuuko is properly laid to rest before she is covered with rubble, then her friends should make sure it is done.
Exactly what I'm trying to point out. Yukariko was heavily influenced by locals and even her grandfather who felt that her family abandoned their duties. Indeed her participation of Yuuko sacrifice was horrible act and a heinous crime. But at that moment she was convinced that she was doing it for the benefit of her community to end the plague no matter how twisted or stupidly irrational it was.
