On the Number of Elderly Folks In Nursing Homes Who've Prematurely Died from Isolation and Loneliness as Opposed to the Number Who've Prematurely Died from COVID

I don't know the answer. No one probably does. My suspicion is that there's probably a toxic combination of the two (getting COVID but not having an adequate support system to defeat it) but until we get a media not 1,000% beholding to the entrenched bureaucratic template and a scientific and medical establishment not scared to death by it, getting to the bottom of it soon is quite unlikely.
