Five residents in the nursing home at Maanan Nursing Home in Beer Sheva have so far passed away, the last of which is a resident transferred last Wednesday, according to the Ministry of Health, to the "Neot High School" geriatric center in Jaffa. Earlier, in the morning, a 67-year-old resident of Soroka Hospital died in the city, after being diagnosed as positive for the Corona virus. She suffered from a variety of serious background illnesses and was transferred from the nursing home in Be'er Sheva a few days ago.

"This is an unimaginable level of disaster and a continuing failure by the Ministry of Health and the Maanan administration that does not do enough to care for the elderly who are in the nursing home," claims Ravid, whose 85-year-old father lives in Mashan. "I really can't believe that there is such a big medical malfunction and the Ministry of Health is acting like nothing is happening. So far, because of the failures, five tenants have passed away."

"You can't believe what's going on there," she continues with "Israel Today," "Mishan's management apparently is afraid that tenants will bring out all the mess that is happening, so they took their phones and didn't let them talk to their family members so they wouldn't pass on They are locked up in their rooms, they have no one to evacuate, when most of the staff does not show up for work, because they are afraid of being infected. Catastrophe is happening there, and someone has to give the verdict on the death of five tenants, because of criminal conduct, "she said in a conversation. The people of Israel today.

The damage to the virus and the infection of dozens of residents, some of them in the nursing ward, are not surprising, due to the fact that most of them are in a difficult and complex medical condition. At this time, six nursing home residents are in hospital, with five of them in serious condition. According to the report, 27 tenants from the nursing department, as well as two independent tenants, 13 staff members, and a total of 42 people contracted.

The first tenant was 93-year-old Abraham Arushes, who shared a table with the third deceased, 87-year-old Michael Jackson from Blades. Following the deaths of Arushas, ​​tenants' families warned of an imminent disaster, claiming they did not heed their warnings.

During the night, 10 tenants who were infected in Corona were evacuated to a nursing home in Netanya, and another resident went to Soroka Hospital. In response, Mishna said that the Ministry of Health decided to transfer them and the nursing home staff did not receive notification, but in retrospect. Because of this, Mishan's management could not update the tenants' families in a timely manner.

"I don't know how sad I am about what's going on with my father," another tenant's daughter said. "Mishan's management hides a lot of important information from us. My dad took the phone, and I was a lot annoyed with him because he has severe hearing problems. Now I hang up with him, and I'm sure it's done to hide from us the large default size, which is not over yet."
