@ Cofty: test and quarrantine staff before allowing them anywhere near the residents.
Oil-rig workers, armed forces etc. all have to leave their families for limited periods of time, so why not care-workers in order to save lives?
a) Who said anything about "8 weeks confinement?"
b) "Pending a vaccine?" A miracle vaccine eh? Like the 'fu vaccine, which still lets 1000s die?
Your turn: What "sensible" & "workable" solutions can you come up with which will stop care-home residents being killed by staff who infect them not only with Covid 19 now, but with the deadly 'flu virus in 6 months time?

So your suggestion is that a woman on minimum wage, who has a husband and children, should go into 14 day isolation away from her family before she can start work at the care home.
How many weeks do you think she should complete before stopping work?
Who would sign up for such a job that destroys family life? Oil workers get paid a small fortune for working offshore. Who is going to pay similar levels of pay for hundreds of thousands of care workers under your scheme?
A miracle vaccine eh? Like the 'fu vaccine, which still lets 1000s die?
So this new arrangement you propose is to be permanent because you demand a 'perfect' vaccine. Meanwhile back in the real world...

Yes, back in the real world - you never answered the question. Are you just trolling, because you're only criticising. You haven't offered anything constructive to the discussion.
Here's your chance: what great wisdom/solutions can you share with us which will save thousands of residents from premature deaths? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-52631604

Boogy - You are the one who ranted about an 'avoidable catastrophe'.
I don't think it was realistically avoidable. I asked you to suggest how it could have been avoided. So far your only idea is to take 1.49 million people - mostly women on minimum wage - away from their families for months or years.
The ball is in your court not mine.
Criticising the government is virtue signalling. Offering viable alternatives is where you earn respect.

Sigh!! Yet more criticism and still nothing constructive to offer?
Thanks for the heads up.

You seem incapable of following a simple conversation so I will leave you to shout at the universe.

there is no easy or quick fix to the problem. care of the elderly is expensive, and no one really wants to foot the bill.
these deaths of people WITH COVID SYMPTOMS are mostly the elderly, and who is to say they would die naturally within a few weeks or months anyway? but--you can never tell. My (JW ) father went into a care home in jan 2013, after several weeks in hospital.When he was discharged--he was sent away with a "purple form", which really means do not resucitate if he had a life threatening episode. The care home manager said he didnt have long to go--weeks..maybe months. But--he regained strength--and lived till jan 2016. he was 94.

LOL Cofty. Your inability to answer a straightforward question, combined with a serious deficiency in social skills and respect for others, is evidence that you don't belong here since you are not conforming to the claimed mission of this site which says it provides "a friendly, tolerant and informative environment."
What is your real motive for being on an ex-JW site? Because as a "member," you are clearly not friendly, definitely not tolerant, and bereft of information for a discussion.
