I'm not saying sweep mistakes under the rug. But the fact is there were going to be a lot of elderly deaths from this no matter what was done with the resources that were available. And trying to blame every death on a particular person or persons is frustrating. I have no idea about senior care but I imagine that the system deficiencies have been going on for decades across all parties. Admit there are problems and work on fixing them.
