Coronavirus: Police find 'pile of bodies' at New Jersey nursing home

A New Jersey nursing home is under investigation after police found 18 bodies in a 'makeshift morgue' on site.

The Andover Subacute and Rehabilitation Centre said in an email to the state's governor that the "more than average deaths" due to coronavirus had meant that more bodies needed to be stored in the facility, which usually has a capacity of four.

At another one of the state's struggling nursing homes, family members said they weren't informed about dying relatives inside.
