Gold Member BOHICA Posted November 24, 2020 Gold Member Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) A nursing home expert who analyzed data from the country’s 15,000 facilities for The Associated Press estimates that for every two COVID-19 victims in long-term care, there is another who died prematurely of other causes. Those “excess deaths” beyond the normal rate of fatalities in nursing homes could total more than 40,000 since March. https://apnews.com/article/nursing-homes-neglect-death-surge-3b74a2202140c5a6b5cf05cdf0ea4f32 Edited November 24, 2020 by BOHICA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F3600 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Here in MN, conveniently never mentioned, is that about 70% of the Covid deaths continue to come from long term care faculties. The most masked, cleaned, tested, and controlled faculties in the state (with regard to Covid), yet continue to have 70% of the deaths. Makes the efforts outside those faculties all the more foolish.

I think it's north of 70% here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
