Richard J. Molot, executive director of the US General Alliance on Long-Term Care, confirmed that the response of the US federal government to fighting the outbreak of the Corona virus was “very slow”.
“The federal government was able to reduce the level of risk for patients in nursing homes, but it ignored some signs of what was happening and its response was very slow in general,” Mallet said in an interview with Russia Today.
Molt added: In some states, deaths in elderly homes amounted from 30 to 50% of this state’s death rate, even though the elderly accounted for only 1% of the total population.
The United States yesterday recorded the world’s highest gross death toll, either deaths or injuries, with 87,991 deaths out of 45,629 injuries, according to the latest toll compiled by Agence France-Presse.
