The UK has become the first country in Europe to pass 30,000 coronavirus deaths.

Over the last few weeks, #Newsnight has been examining the effect of coronavirus on care homes - where the prime minister has said an epidemic is taking place.

Here's what we know

THREAD 👇
On March 10th, before lockdown began, #Newsnight's UK Editor @KatieRazz visited a care home in Blackpool to see what preparations were being made to combat #Covid19.

Staff warned that self-isolation wasn't possible for vulnerable residents

WATCH 📺bbc.in/2WcN0dB
The impact of #Covid19 on care homes has been apparent for weeks.

On April 2, @Lewis_goodall reported the virus was spreading "like wildfire" & was told by an assistant care home manager the way the elderly were treated was "disgusting"

But on Facebook, more is going on. Here’s our investigation into the murky world of closed groups

Closed Facebook groups are private; only approved members can see their content.

On both pro and anti-Brexit groups, Newsnight found disinformation and abuse

#newsnight | @mariannaspring | @Lucy_Webster_
Some posts share links to known conspiracy or alt-right websites.

For example, several groups shared content from a website, Brexit Betrayal News, with links to the QAnon conspiracy bbc.in/2Wf56hZ
