In contrast to the general trend of the epidemic. A decline in deaths is observed between the end of January and March 2021, reaching 0,6 per cent of residents of RSA for non self-sufficient elderly people.

A huge sacrifice that, perhaps, our grandparents in this latest pandemic phase will be spared.
