Publisher's Synopsis
Few places have felt the devastating effects of the Coronavirus more deeply than America's nursing homes. More than 200,000 Americans living in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities have died from the Coronavirus representing 20 percent of all coronavirus deaths in our Nation. The ferocity with which the Coronavirus swept through our Nation's nursing homes in 2020 exposed vulnerabilities that had been building for years, for too many nursing homes had inadequate staffing and poor infection control viruses well before the pandemic. These long-standing problems helped to drive outrage that exacerbated the risks for Americans who need long-term care.
