Fortunately, this nursing home administered the vaccine to 98.666664 percent of its residents, which is an above average statistic. To our surprise, this facility also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
