Please have some compassion for these people and their families. Their must be a way if not find one where people can see their loves again.

People that are in nursing homes need their families there with them. Please allow them to visit their loved ones.

Make it safe to visit loved ones in Nursing homes. Other states have managed to do so!

The rule needs to be relaxed and applied on a case by case basis not a blanket policy.

I have been writing to the governor for months. This has got to stop! What does a positive result have to do with having socially distant visits? We are “protecting” the residents from socially distant visits just so they can die of loneliness and despair. Disgraceful! Let the nursing home have visits despite a positive result in their ranks...

My father-in-law was in Stony Brook Long Island VA! We would be very upset if we couldn't visit him!

Our lone ones will die of depression if they don’t see their family. I feel 28 days is a long wait.

I agree that nursing homes should be Covid free for at least 28 days before visitation.

Without family contact, these people slip deeper and deeper into depression. Your mother IS NOT in one of these facilities..You would have her with private staff in her home. You just don’t give a damn about the “ little guy”.

There should be some arrangements made for family members to visit.

Per CDC, if you follow protocol, there is NO reason, not to allow them to visit. This is overstepping the powers given to you as our representative.

Allow his loved ones to visit. It may help his recovery.People in nursing need their family.
