Seems even the Torygraph has had enough:

Care homes' soaring death rate blamed on 'reckless' order to take back Covid-19 patients

But does the above, which I accept, alter the fact that 60% of CV deaths are in hospitals that have all the facilities?

The angle I'm taking here is to question the sensationalising of care home deaths as a proportion of the total when the fully equipped hospital proportion is much higher.

Given that CV sufferers dwell in both places, wouldn't you expect thehospitals to do "better"?
