A Western Massachusetts nursing home is the latest senior living facility to get ravaged from an alarming coronavirus cluster, with 21 residents dying from the highly contagious disease, according to a letter sent to families of the Leavitt Family Jewish Home and the Sosin Center for Rehabilitation in Longmeadow.

“The loss of so many of our loved ones is reflective of the severity of some manifestations of this terrible disease,” JGS Lifecare officials wrote in the letter. “We offer our sincere condolences to their families and share in their grief. We plan to honor and celebrate the lives of those we lost once this crisis passes.”

Ninety-three residents at the nursing home have tested positive for coronavirus, and 43 staff members have also tested positive.

“Please keep in mind that most of our residents are in stable condition, many are asymptomatic, and some are already showing signs of recovery,” the letter stated. “Out of caution, all residents at JNH are now quarantined in their rooms, regardless of test status. We have also implemented a universal mask and gown protocol for all staff in the building.”

There are zero cases at Ruth’s House, which is JGS Lifecare’s assisted living facility.

Of the 756 total deaths in Massachusetts from coronavirus, 340 deaths are connected to long-term care facilities.

One notable outbreak was at a veteran’s home in Holyoke that has killed 37, infected 76 and prompted both state and federal investigations.

More than 2,700 deaths nationwide have been linked to coronavirus outbreaks in nursing homes and long-term care facilities, according to the latest count by The Associated Press.
