Map: Here Are The SoCal Skilled Nursing Homes With Coronavirus Cases
The state health department has for the first time released detailed data on the numbers of positive coronavirus cases reported at skilled nursing facilities across California.
We plotted the Southern California facilities in the map above. Each point represents a nursing home that has reported either staff or patients testing positive for COVID-19.
The colors represent how many patients have tested positive at a facility (gray = 0; yellow = 0-11 ; shades of red = 11 or more, where darker shades mean more cases). Where a facility has reported at least one positive case but fewer than 11, the state did not provide the exact number.
Two facilities could not be mapped based on the limited information provided by the state. Those facilities are "HI-DESERT MEDICAL CENTER D/P SNF" and "PROVIDENCE ONTARIO," both in San Bernardino County and each with fewer than 11 patients and fewer than 11 staff testing positive.
