The lack of isolation factors aside - the nursing homes didn't have the capability of treating these patients properly, and they certainly weren't equipped to handle any rapid declines. We've received nursing home patients that were verging on dying. They should have been in a hospital long before this. Some ended up on ventilators. Most of them so far have been discharged to homes. We have had a few deaths, but it is nothing like the news would have people believe.
