I'm going to assume the criteria Europe uses to put people in nursing homes is the same that we do in the US and they are similarly run.

Many countries in Europe banned visits to nursing home residents which may have had the negative effect of overworking staff members. However, not every country is counting deaths that occur outside of hospitals in their coronavirus tallies, but recent data from London School of Economics researchers backs up the WHO’s estimation.

So a certain percentage of old folks are going to die. Just like they were going to die without Wuhan. It may even be worse because asymptomatic children can come in and kill MeMa without knowing it. The good folks who work there could too. Given that they have to keep the elderly locked up even before Wuhan, more will get infected and not recover. It's not that grandma is expendable, it's just life. I could see how this could wipe out entire nursing homes and has.

I'm curious if the number of euthanasia has increased and how they are categorized.

I thought the statistic about not allowing family visits may actually overwork the staff members was interesting.
