It must be heart-breaking for these older vulnerable and mostly lonely people (many with dementia) not to see their families, and for their families not to see them. Just holding their hands (if they don't recognise the family member) is a massive comfort.
I know this is not a nice comment, but as these residents are nearing their end of life time, then there is much less worry of long term effects (if any ) of the vaccines. So there should be no complaints or arguing about the safety of the vaccines, as long as they are administered correctly by a competent person.

Ministers are looking at how to relax coronavirus restrictions so families can celebrate Christmas together.
The government's medical adviser on Covid, Susan Hopkins, said they were working on a plan and wanted Christmas to be "as close to normal as possible".
She said tough restrictions might be needed before and after the holiday to allow mixing to take place.
BBC health correspondent Nick Triggle said any rule change would be for a limited time, maybe just a few days.
The prime minister's official spokesman confirmed ministers were "looking at ways to ensure that people can spend time with close family over Christmas at the end of what has been an incredibly difficult year".
All four UK nations - England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland - are trying to work out a common approach to Christmas so families spread across the UK can still meet up.

Being the cynic that I am about governance and control I politely suggest to any reader that the Government know they cannot CONTROL the Christmas period.
The vast majority of people, including me, will go where they want to be at Christmas......namely with their family, regardless of any dreconian rules in place on liberty and freedom. They know this to be the case and they know that on mass they cannot enforce any restrictions.
Hence, the supposed olive branch they offer........with the caveat "She said tough restrictions might be needed before and after the holiday to allow mixing to take place.".......please wake up.
