Study finds Canada's proportion of LTC deaths double the average of other nations

released Thursday by the Canadian Institute for Health Information provides a damning snapshot of senior care as of May 25, when LTC residents made up 81 per cent of all reported COVID-19 deaths in the country compared to an average of 42 per cent among all countries studied.

Nevertheless, Tracy Johnson, CIHI's director of health systems analysis and emerging issues, says the data offers valuable insight into a tragedy many families, caregivers and residents have been trying to illustrate since the pandemic began. But for now, she notes several of Canada's hardest-hit facilities are still grappling with the devastating fallout of existing infections.

There were none in Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and the territories at the time of the study. Two LTC residents have since died in New Brunswick.

This is the shame of our nation; a lack of political will to invest in our elders or for any of the care professions (child care, health care, education etc).

now compare who owns the homes and how greedy the owners are? perhaps full time jobs amongst staff?

Air pollution and nutritional deficiencies.

“But it was actually Ontario and Quebec’s failure to enact safeguards for seniors’ facilities at the outset of the crisis – such as broad testing, mandatory use of personal protective equipment and the isolation of infected residents – that seemed to doom the sector, CIHI found”

Canada murdered the seniors
