Wow. That's really incredible and shocking. Those are very disturbing statistics. I appreciate your sharing them with the committee. They are critical for the research that we are doing in this study.
By way of a personal anecdote, I have a very dear mentor who is a friend of mine. Her mother is elderly, lives in a care home and has dementia. She is the one person, even though they have a large family, allowed to go and see her, but when she goes to see her, of course, precautions must be taken. She wears her mask and her shield. Her mother is already quite confused at this stage. She's not even allowed to touch her mother. She's not allowed to help her go to the bathroom, or really provide any of those supports that caregivers are allowed to provide.
When she told me this story, she was very emotional, obviously. As a daughter, she can't even hug her mother. I'm wondering if you have any recommendations, for the next number of years if we have to live with the pandemic, on how we can better support seniors, particularly in that situation, and have their family, perhaps.... I don't know. I'm not a medical expert. I'm not a seniors expert. I'm just wondering what your perspective is. Is there anything more that we could be doing to help women and men in that situation?
