Was reading a piece in the German press about how they are hopeful that they have reached the plateau and are perhaps even about to head in a downward trajectory. However, there is serious concern that the situation might rapidly change if the virus takes hold in the care home sector. Seventeen people died at a single Wolfsburg care home last weekend, while the UK has had a similar situation with thirteen people dying at a single Glasgow care home this week.
I appreciate that attention has naturally focused on hospitals as 'the front line', but I do fear a second front could be the 5,500 care providers caring for approximately 410,000 residents in 5,500 facilities, figures from 2017.
