We seem to have problems taking care of those that need the most help, and the COVID-19 pandemic hasn't helped in those areas.
In this week's episode, Adam and Mike focus on the issues arising from long-term care homes, and the fact that, while COVID-19 has brought the problem back into the limelight, we need to do more to ensure the elderly are properly cared for, as well as the people that work tirelessly to make their final years as comfortable as possible.
