Nursing homes

As of May 9th there were 558 deaths in MN caused by the virus and 80% of these were people in long-term care facilities. That leaves 111 in a general population of 5.64 million. It seems that MN like other states should be concentrating efforts on eldercare places. Here is a news item from May 6th. Across Minnesota, from Rochester to Duluth, nursing homes and other facilities that care for seniors are rolling out a series of new measures to protect residents from the spread of the coronavirus and to develop contingency plans in case patients need to be quarantined.  Does this seem a little late? Every year 80% of the people who die from any cause are over age 65.
