As Care Homes continues to be at the center of the virus outbreak, it has been revealed that two residents have died at Home Farm care home on the Isle of Skye. It is understood that 27 staff of the home have been confirmed to have the virus while 30 residents of the home are also infected. This put the home in a very vulnerable position. An investigation has been called into the scale of the outbreak. It is not clear what preventive measures were in place or if there were any at all, but the number of infected persons involved in the home is a scandal and worrisome. As the trend of discharging patients from hospitals to care homes in order to free beds for new patients without testing them for the virus continues, it appears care homes will continue to be bashed by this virus for some time to come.
