If you do not live in a nursing home cut your calculated risk of dying from COVID-19 Democrat Hype by 1/2.
"Life Care said 70 of its 180 employees have shown COVID-19 symptoms and are no longer working. The facility said that it has 63 residents remaining — down from 120 before the outbreak — and that six of them have symptoms."
63 - 6 = 57.

And Now the Rest of the story.
26 residents have died. It is an acute care facility where about three to seven residents die in a typical month, it said in a written statement.

What is the possibility that 10 die in a month normally?
Could the staff have seen any warning signs?
TBH all of the people who died, would have died this year. This just sped it up by 1 to 3 months. COVID-19 was a co-factor in their deaths probably and may not have been the main factor in any of them.
