“COVID Cases, Deaths Plummet in Nursing Homes After Vaccine Rollout,” by Robin Foster and Ernie Mundell, HealthDay

 

Quote:

“In a hopeful turnaround during a long pandemic, U.S. nursing homes that were once the epicenter of coronavirus infections are now seeing both cases and deaths fall steeply as the country’s vaccination rollout starts to take hold. … The downward trend in deaths was even more heartening: Even as fatalities spiked overall this winter, deaths inside nursing homes have dropped by more than 65 percent.”
