Though not all 50 states are currently providing complete data, a huge percentage of the 83,231 C****-** deaths in the United States, as of 5 p.m. eastern on Tuesday, May 12, were among residents of nursing homes and long-term care facilities.

The Henry J. Kaiser Foundation has assembled nursing home/long-term care facility C****-** mortality data from the 33 states that report that data, and calculates that, as of May 7, nursing home and long term care facility residents accounted for 38 percent of the C****-** deaths in those states. The percentage of c****av***s deaths from nursing homes appears to be increasing as the p******c d**gs on.

President Trump has done everything possible after the Chinese C*******t government hid the infection from the world, rather than giving other nations an early warning.

Based on the knowledge he was given, and lack of adequate guidance from the dubious CDC leadership, he acted alone to close off visitors from W***n from entering the U.S., over the frenzied objections of the entire elected Democrat "leadership."

The Democrat governors of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania are under fire for controversial nursing home policy decisions that critics say fueled c****av***s deaths in those facilities.

On March 25, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) ordered nursing homes to accept patients who tested positive for C****-**, as the New York Post reported:

An executive at the unnamed Queens nursing home says that the facility was c****av***s-free until Gov. Andrew Cuomo forced facilities in the state to accept c****av***s patients on March 25.

The New York Post reported on April 23.
On Sunday, Gov. Cuomo reversed that controversial order, as NY1 reported:

Governor Cuomo is effectively reversing a much-criticized policy directive that was sending seniors treated for C****-** back into nursing homes.

Critics said that policy led to more than 5,000 deaths in nursing homes, which are regulated by the state.

In Pennsylvania, the Bucks County Courier Times reported:

On March 29, as Pennsylvania, New York and other states began ordering nursing homes to admit medically stable residents infected with the c****av***s, national trade groups warned it could unnecessarily cost more lives.

The health directives put “frail and older adults who reside in nursing homes at risk” and would “result in more people going to the hospital and more deaths,” the American Health Care Association and affiliates said at the time.

The escalating tragedy in Pennsylvania nursing and personal care homes, which have more than two-thirds of the state’s c****av***s deaths, has prompted lawmakers to point fingers at the Democrat Governor Wolf administration.

Then on April 6, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy followed Cuomo’s lead and ordered New Jersey nursing homes to accept patients who tested positive for C****-**, as NorthJersey.com reported:

New Jersey nursing homes cannot bar c****av***s patients from being admitted into their facilities, a new state policy designed to make room at hospitals already stressed from a growing surge of critically ill patients.

A month later, it appears government officials should have heeded the dire call to pursue different p******c emergency plans, nearly 4,900 deaths have been linked to c****av***s cases at 500-plus facilities across New Jersey — more than half of all the fatalities in the state and one of the worst outbreaks in the nation.

Radical Progressive Columbia University modeling is meaningless.

The CCP created this C****av***s and allowed Chinese from W***n to travel all over the world with no warning to other countries.

The CDC slowed President Trump, instead of assisting him, and they have been muddying the water ever since.

Callous Democrat governors with dubious motives have instigated the infections and deaths of thousands of the elderly, who are known to be the most vulnerable in our society.

Even the nation's truly feeble minded would not choose to ignore these facts, and hysterically screech that "Trump Did It!"

MANY times on OPP, I've seen Republicans (when trying to refute death toll counts from CV-19) say something like, "Yeah, but how many of those deaths were people in nursing homes?". Or, "yeah, but most of those deaths were people in nursing homes". I've even seen them state that opening the economy is worth the trade-off in lost lives because CV-19 mostly k**ls old people and those with pre-existing conditions. I've yet to hear a lefty say anything similar. Everyone knows that righties want to open up to save the economy, consequences be damned, while lefties are more cautious due to the inevitably resultant ever higher death counts, including those in nursing homes. Quite simply, righties value money over elderly people's lives and even over the lives of the young and middle aged who also succumb to CV-19 along the way.
