Coronavirus Outbreak at Nursing Home Leaves Five Dead
An outbreak of the novel coronavirus at a nursing home in Massachusetts has left five residents dead, according to state data.
Data from the Massachusetts Department of Health shows that some 30 people, including both residents and staff, at Sunny Acres Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Chelmsford have tested positive for COVID-19.
In a statement posted to its website last week, Sunny Acres Administrator Jeff Schwartz said the center “has been fortunate over the past 15 weeks to not have a single resident or staff COVID-19 positive case,” noting that the facility has conducted some 1,600 PCR tests on staffs and residents to date.
