The outbreak at the Geer Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Canaan began Sept. 30, officials said in a statement Friday.

The eight residents who died had serious health problems, chief executive Kevin O’Connell and nursing director Cady Bloodgood said. Those who tested positive included 67 residents and 22 staff members. Officials said 48 residents and 21 employees have recovered.

It looks like the vaccines are “working” as intended.

died during a coronavirus outbreak

Clever propaganda.

It doesn't say that's what killed them, but it does say they had serious health issues.

Could be staff, however families are visiting, these patients go out to appointments. We can’t stop this virus.

“The eight residents who died had serious health problems.” I’m actually shocked that the AP reported this aspect.

Sincere condolences to the families that passed.

So much death.

Even in my own family.

Yup, fully vaccinated.

Oh, it gets better.

“Geer Lodge Assisted Living will be offering booster vaccine doses on Tuesday, November 2nd, for all Lodge residents and staff. Geer nursing residents and staff that are eligible for the booster will be notified as to when and where they can receive their shots as the current outbreak subsides.”

Double down on stupid!

We can do this!

Yeah. You couldn’t get them to admit this at all during 2020.

almost all residents of nursing homes have serious health problems...yes, some are there strictly for rehab....but most are just there.....

we can not stop a virus, never could....

we should have let it run its course from day one....

but we all know the agenda was to do a coup on our govt and our society so thx again to the Branch Covidians.

Probably all of the staff. Residents come & go at rehab facilities.

My mother contracted COVID and died at a Bucks County (PA) facility prior to the vaccines being available. Had a discussion with the director about the wisdom of sending her out for a temporary stay at a local rehab facility to get her medications adjusted. Sure enough she brought it back to the facility and at least 1 other resident died of it.

Why? Since the deceased were almost surely vaxxed, it is now necessary to tweak the narrative by way of explaining why the vaccines do not work to "prevent death." We'll be seeing more of this, I imagine, going forward.
