COVID-Related Deaths in Nursing Homes Jump After Vaccine

Summary by Cindy Olmstead

March 10, 2021

Great Britain began vaccinating the elderly in nursing homes in December 2020; by January 2021 coronavirus-related deaths had jumped 46%. A total of 2,467 COVID-related deaths were reported in the four weeks leading up to the January 8 report.

Interestingly, the U.K. government has been encouraging the homes to accept COVID-positive patients from crowded hospitals “by underwriting the risk posed by them spreading the virus,” as “insurers were refusing to cover care homes offering to become ‘designated settings’ for discharged COVID patients,” The Guardian reported.

The U.K. government will cover clinical negligence and employers’ and public liability until the end of March in homes that can’t obtain insurance otherwise.
