Excess mortality for care home residents during the first 23 weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic in England: a national cohort study

Marcello Morciano et al.

Summary: By August 7, 2020, there were 29,542 (95% CI 25,176 to 33,908) excess deaths in all care homes in England. Excess deaths accounted for 6.5% (95% CI 5.5 to 7.4%) of all care home beds, with a higher rate in nursing homes (8.4%) compared to residential homes (4.6%). 64.7% (95% CI 56.4 to 76.0%) of excess deaths were confirmed/suspected COVID-19 cases. The odds of experiencing COVID-19 attributable deaths were higher in homes providing nursing services, with older residents and/or dementia patients, larger homes, and belonging to a large provider/brand, but not significantly associated with for-profit status.
