Disturbing research from ⁦ @LTCcovid⁩ @adelinacohe @zalaka11. It compares #covid19 mortality data in care homes across 5 European countries. Care homes account for between 42% and 57% of all their Covid19 deaths. https://ltccovid.org/2020/04/12/mortality-associated-with-covid-19-outbreaks-in-care-homes-early-international-evidence/

Given UK is only counting Covid19 deaths in hospital, if our care home death rate is anything like these five countries the true UK death toll could be much higher still.
