March 13, 2020 _ CMS Announces New Measures to Protect Nursing Home Residents from COVID-19
[...] “As we learn more about the Coronavirus from experts on the ground, we’ve learned that seniors with multiple conditions are at highest risk for infection and complications, so CMS is using every tool at our disposal to keep nursing homes free from infection,” said CMS Administrator Seema Verma. “Temporarily restricting visitors and nonessential workers will help reduce the risk of Coronavirus spread in nursing homes, keeping residents safe. The Trump Administration is working around the clock to ensure the continued safety of America’s health care system, particularly nursing homes.”
The new measures CMS announced today, which supersede prior CMS guidance, constitute the agency’s most aggressive and decisive recommendations with respect to nursing home safety in the face of the spread of COVID-19. They include:
Restricting all visitors, effective immediately, with exceptions for compassionate care, such as end-of-life situations;
Restricting all volunteers and nonessential health care personnel and other personnel (i.e. barbers);
Cancelling all group activities and communal dining; and
Implementing active screening of residents and health care personnel for fever and respiratory symptoms.
The guidance directs nursing homes to restrict visitation except in certain compassionate cases, like end-of-life. In those cases, visitors will be equipped with personal protective equipment (PPE) like masks, and the visit will be limited to a specific room only.
...According to CDC, seniors with multiple health conditions are at highest risk for complications. With large congregations of that particularly vulnerable population, nursing homes are extremely susceptible to quick spread of the virus. There have already been reports of large numbers of cases of COVID-19 spreading quickly through nursing homes, such as the Life Care Center in Kirkland, Washington. The spread of COVID-19 in a nursing home can amplify or seed further spread to other facilities when patients are transferred and when staff and visitors come and go. According to CDC, visitors and health care personnel who are ill are the most likely source of introduction of COVID-19 into nursing homes, necessitating today’s change in guidance to restrict visitors and personnel... -- CMS.gov
March 25, 2020 _ 12 Days After CMS Announces New Measures to Protect Nursing Home Residents from COVID-19, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) issues COVID-19 mandate which directly contradicts the clear directive from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) issued a mandate to force nursing homes to take known COVID-19-positive patients, and to prohibit nursing homes from testing patients for COVID-19 prior to admission.
In the weeks that followed the March 25 mandate, COVID-19 tore through New York state’s nursing facilities, killing more than 6,000 people -- about 6% of its more than 100,000 nursing home residents.
Other Democrat governors copied Governor Cuomo's mandate. These Democrat governors include: Pennsylvania’s Tom Wolf, New Jersey’s Phil Murphy, Michigan’s Gretchen Whitmer, California’s Gavin Newsom, and others.

In my home state Pennsylvania, nearly 70 percent of the COVID-19 deaths have occurred in nursing homes and long-term-care facilities.
