4th senior dies at Calgary nursing home, 66 residents and staff test positive


A fourth senior has died as an outbreak of COVID-19 continues to spread throughout a Calgary care home. Revera Living, which operates McKenzie Towne Long Term Care Home, confirmed Wednesday that in total, 43 seniors have tested positive, two are in hospital and 23 staff have tested positive and are in isolation at home. Two more Calgary long-term care facilities have also experienced outbreaks of COVID-19, bringing the total in the city to three. Now he's also bedridden having tested positive for COVID-19, and with the 150-bed facility locked down to stop an outbreak that's already infected dozens of residents, Vaughan says communication is a problem. In Alberta, as of Wednesday, 871 people have tested positive for COVID-19.
