Ground Zero: A fifth to half of all coronavirus deaths have been in nursing homes

That's the way Texas is doing it -- nursing home stats aren't reported.

That could have been the subtext of O'Reilly's "they are on their last legs anyway", they don't count, grandmas as nothing but non-productive, Medicaid $$$ sucking, expendable human garbage

In my opinion they point about isolating this to nursing homes isn't to say the people in there don't matter but to say that the method being used for both counting and dealing with these problems should be investigated. The counting issue is a real issue if we're going to do comparisons and make value judgments based on numbers. Otherwise the numbers aren't really anything except for trends.

That will not play well in the fall. Authoritarian cover-ups blow up in the face of the authoritarian, when they get outed. Good investigative journalists are already looking into it.

Straining at gnats. I said so much for respect for elders.

My cohort never stood much on biblical convention. The pointy end of my stick was aimed at the targets.

If the irony of the blatant hypocrisy doesnt set it, Imma have to devalue your already questionable social media morality.

What's your gripe? That I underrate DMC's parsing and hairsplitting?

That is what 44 said he wanted anyone above 76 died



The point if the article is the common flu killed 35 people in a nursing home that had 350 people in it

Do you not care who died ?

In New York. where the coronavirus numbers continue to climb, coronavirus patients in hospitals were returning to nursing homes because a New York state mandate required nursing homes to accept patients recovering from COVID-19 even if they were still contagious.

The March 25 New York Department of Health’s advisory to nursing home administrators and hospital discharge planners bears Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s name and states: ”No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the nursing home solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19.”

“If they can’t do it, we’ll put them in a facility that can do it.”

Oh.
