KANSAS CITY, Mo. â Roughly 50,000 households in the Kansas City metro are at risk of homelessness, and there aren t enough resources to serve them all, according to local advocates. Some agencies get so many calls, they have to stop the calls, Teresa McClain, director of development at Community LINC, said. They don t have the capacity to be able to help the number of calls that come in.
WHO CARES IF THE ECONOMY IS DESTROYED!!! Democrat will rule over us all! A significant amount of displacement has occurred that is reflected in the lower than expected deaths in older age groups and Alzheimer and dementia deaths through the summer. In-hospital deaths with a positive covid test are the highest for any setting; however, they contribute much less to the overall excess in deaths. Deaths in the home remain persistently high, and yet they receive little attention.
In other words, because of COVID-19, deaths occurred a few months earlier than might have been expected in particular populations, including the elderly and dementia patients. The increase in deaths at home concerned U.K. health officials earlier this year because they feared they were a result of people not seeking care or not receiving care because of the pandemic.
