A death in a London area long-term care home (LTCH) is only a matter of time, according to London’s Chief Medical Officer of Health.
Wednesday’s daily COVID-19 briefing wth Dr. Chris Mackie and Mayor Ed Holder gave an overview of how the pandemic is developing provincially, with Dr.
Mackie focusing on what’s happening in long-term care homes. Four of the new cases Wednesday were residents in a LTCH following the nine cases that were reported yesterday.
The total number of residents that have tested positive for COVID-19 in long term-care homes locally is 13, with five additional cases in retirement homes.
