Maryland nursing home hit by virus outbreak
One resident of a Maryland nursing home died after contracting COVID-19 in an outbreak that has sickened dozens of the facility’s residents and strained its staff, health officials say.
A man in his 90s, who was a resident at the Peasant View Nursing Home, died Saturday night after testing positive for COVID-19, Carroll County Health Health Officer Ed Singer says at a news conference. Singer says 66 residents have tested positive and 11 were hospitalized, the same numbers that were reported the previous night.
Singer says that to his knowledge, no staff members have tested positive for the virus, but some say symptoms are keeping them from coming in.
