Ridgewood NJ, More than 100,000 people are now dead in the United States because of a virus no one had heard of before late last year. This microscopic pathogen COVID19 brought life and lives to a halt.
The most important and ignored Coronavirus statistic is that 43% of U.S. deaths are from nursing homes . That means 2.1 million Americans in Long Term Care facilities , representing 0.62% of the U.S. population, account for 43% of all deaths due to COVID19 . In Ridgewood alone suffered 35 deaths from COVID19 and 28 were in Long Term Care .
