April 10, 20206 yr comment_18978 Outbreaks in long-term care facilities (LTCs) https://msdh.ms.gov/msdhsite/_static/14,0,420.html#caseTable Long-term care (LTC) facilities like nursing homes are considered high risk locations because their residents are older or in poor health. Even one case of COVID-19 in these facilities among residents or employees is considered an outbreak. We investigate residents, staff and close contacts of infected individuals for possible exposure. The number of LTC facilities with outbreaks are shown for each county in the table below.
