N.Y. State Attorney General & Health Commissioner Expose Gov. Cuomo's 13,000 Nursing Home Covid Deaths

Dem hero not a dashing dude but a dumb dud

The Democrat News Media would never have let a Republican Governor get away with Cuomo's insanely irresponsible action of sending deathly sick, elderly, Covid patients back into Nursing Homes, to be treated, instead of to ample, empty, hospital beds and a totally empty hospital ship supplied by the President.  This snarling, witless, New York Governor was, in the mean time, being lauded and lionized for his inept handling of this virus, in his State under his  responsibility.  New York State has been mortally wounded, by this Democrat hero, is suffering, and will suffer for his actions and in-actions for years into the future. Literally tens of thousands of New Yorkers are leaving New York for more efficiently run and safer states, most of which have, strangely, Republican Governors.

 

FOX News Reports

A damning attorney general’s report that showed Gov. Andrew Cuomo and other officials downplayed the deadly impact of COVID-19 on New York’s nursing homes finally led the state’s embattled health commissioner on Thursday to reveal the total number of resident fatalities.

In a defensive, nearly 1,700-word statement, Dr. Howard Zucker released figures that put the tally of confirmed and presumed deaths in both nursing homes and hospitals at 12,743 as of Jan. 19.

The staggering number is only slightly less than the 13,000-plus suggested by the report issued earlier in the day by Attorney General Letitia James. ___________________________

In answer to the above expose, several independent news outlets reported this: On Friday Governor Andrew Cuomo proved he is as heartless as he is reckless. The New York Governor told reporters, “Whether a person died in a nursing home or a hospital… Who cares? They died!”

Breitbart News Reported

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” former HHS Assistant Secretary Adm. Brett Giroir stated that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) order on coronavirus patients in nursing homes wasn’t following federal government guidance and Cuomo “can’t shift the blame. He has to own this one.”

Giroir said, “What Gov. Cuomo said is the nursing homes had to take back these patients. They were mandated to do that. What the CDC said is, under very specific circumstances where a nursing home had all the training, had all the PPE, had all the isolation requirements, all the staff, all the training, then it would be permissible to do so. In no way was this federal government guidance. That is just absolutely wrong and he can’t shift the blame. He has to own this one.
