On Friday, when the Columbia County Department of Health published its breakdown of COVID-19 cases by municipality and nursing home, it was reported that there were 127 positive cases at Barnwell in Valatie. That number represents almost 60 percent of residents at the facility.
Yesterday, when the CCDOH numbers for the day were published on Facebook, reporting no new deaths in the past 24 hours, someone commented that her father-in-law had died of the virus at Barnwell over the weekend.
Today, the Register-Star reports on the current situation at Barnwell: "Barnwell death toll at 15." According to the article, the most recent death occurred on Sunday. For reasons unknown, that death was not included in the statistics reported by the CCDOH either on Monday or yesterday.
Hmm...
