'The army, during certain visits, found some old people completely abandoned, sometimes even dead in their beds' - Spanish Minister for Defence

Spanish soldiers deployed to help fight the coronavirus outbreak have been finding elderly patients abandoned, and sometimes dead, at care homes.

Generally, a person needs to be 15 minutes or more in the vicinity of an infected person, within 1-2 metres, to be considered at-risk or a close contact. The improvised morgue would start to be used "in the coming hours," the regional government of Madrid said.

So heartbreaking

This is one of the most heartbreaking things I've ever read... Working as a carer 13 years & many of our elderly have a huge fear of dying alone... no words 😥❤

Shocking

masi_asylum I’m confused, where were the care workers and management? Where is the duty of care? It sounds like they were just left to die. Gross negligence of the highest order regardless of what has been happening.

I’m glad that my brain could never understand how someone could walk out on some of the most vulnerable people in society. They deserved care, compassion and love until the end.

😢 Awful

Madrid = Isabel Díaz Ayuso; zero responsibility People's party 25years Government in Madrid, Population grew = less social services = less hospitals = less hospitals beds

Disgusting cowardly selfish care workers

This whole thing is more like a movie every day. Soon we will have the looting and a little general anarchy.

Heartbreaking 💔

😫 my heart breaks

This is heartbreaking. I will include them in my prayers tonight. So very sad to read this news.
