Police in New Jersey discovered 17 bodies piled inside a nursing home’s small morgue after receiving an anonymous tip about a body being stored in an outside shed, the New York Times reported Wednesday.
The 17 bodies were among 68 recent deaths linked to Andover Subacute and Rehabilitation Center I and II, the state’s largest licensed facility. When police arrived, the corpse had been removed from the shed.“They were just overwhelmed by the amount of people who were expiring,†said Eric C. Danielson, the police chief in Andover, according to the New York Times.
Of those who died, 26 people had tested positive for coronavirus, underscoring the wildfire-like spread that many fear could be disastrous for nursing homes and other long-term care facilities that house vulnerable populations like the elderly.
