St Mary’s Hospital nursing home in Phoenix Park, Dublin where 11 residents have died in the past month, ten of whom who tested positive for Covid-19

Meanwhile…
Very high numbers of deaths in Craddock House in Naas and in Larchfield Park Nursing Home, Naas. There seems to be no mention of the deaths in the media? Does over 20 deaths in one of them alone not merit a mention? @rtenews @IrishTimes @Independent_ie @VirginMediaNews

That’s a heartbreaking and very poignant letter.
Rest in peace Rose.
Stark and Mrs Hegerty was certainly failed. R.I.P
The bottom line here is that it really does seem like the places (and people in them) obviously most at risk from COVID19 were not protected as they should have been. Or else maybe they were, but the disease is so devastating for the elderly, this happened. My gut tells me it’s the former.
I think your suspicion is correct. There was an article somewhere last week suggesting that this scenario was recognised as a potential problem from the outset (how could it not be?) but that it was allowed to take shape because, it was felt, any mitigating action from the start would have been almost pointless….i.e. let it run its course because resources would be better used elsewhere.
The storm is upon us- the absolute ‘mother’ of all lawsuits.
But ya know- teeth ‘n tits photo shoots are important.
Look at me out swabbing today.
Look at me patting old people on the head tomorrow.
Look at me admiring daffodils in the first week of June.

No queue of lads to accuse BS of pushing an agenda yet?
All institutions where multiple deaths have occurred from the virus need to be
identified and we also need know what protective measures were in place to
limit infection and who in the HSE. the Dept of Health and indeed the Health and
Safety Authority enforced them, those who have had lost family members need
to identify where their deaths have occurred as in the example of the late Mrs
Hegarty…..Sympathy to her grieving family members and the letter by her niece
has exposed what the media have failed to properly report,
Definitely some sort of a cover up in Craddock Hse Nursing home. When I asked the nurses their how many had passed away they said that the owner had instructed them not to tell!!!
When I asked the owner the same question, she said that they had a “few”!!!
I said u have had over 20 and she laughed it off and said no we haven’t!!
This place needs to be investigated as to how the virus got in there!!
Glad to see @paul71 has spotted this aswell.
