Coronavirus lockdown in the UK could last at least another month, as Dominic Raab said the country has not passed the peak.

The ONS has just released its latest weekly death figures for England in Wales, which include a figure for the number of deaths in care homes. The daily coronavirus death figures published by the Department for Health and Social Care every afternoon only cover hospital coronavirus deaths. The figures cover the week ending Friday 3 April . The report suggests that 10% of coronavirus deaths during this period were taking place outside hospital.

I didn't expect BORIS to be sick.......praying for him and his Family though....

Belgium: in the last 24H overall 64 % of the COVID-mortalities situated in care homes in comparison to overall 43% for the whole period

I think it’s the same for all other countries 😣

If a person presents covid 19 like symptoms but sadly dies before being tested, are they subsequently tested? Or excluded?

The ratio between care attendant and patient desperately need to be 3:1. Anything other than that is neglect.

Yes, but if we kill off the elderly in care homes it solves, for the time being, one of the governments biggest problems. Boris does it and no blame lands on him.

No ventilation systems in nursing homes. They keep the heat on blasts and patients are not offered water because the aides are to busy to change and take patients to the bathroom inadequate staffing. An aide shouldn’t have more than three patients.

40-50% of cases in most European figures. So actually, the UK has around 20,000 dead.
