This is more on Cuomo being an idiot ansible Feb 2021 #7
No it's not. And no he isn't. From eight months ago when NO other governors briefed ANYbody: ancianita Feb 2021 #19
Trump forced Cuomo to lie? MichMan Feb 2021 #42
Cuomo couldn't and said why. 70% of the nation's nursing homes are run by private enterprise, ancianita Feb 2021 #12
Stupid, stupid, stupid mistake. Trump wanted discounted numbers for Pete's sakes. Who made ... marble falls Feb 2021 #5
Florida did the same thing. I know it for a fact. yardwork Feb 2021 #8

Yep. I bet that went in other states as well. LisaL Feb 2021 #11
They did a very stupid thing in New York early in the pandemic. LisaL Feb 2021 #10
Where were they supposed to put them? Seriously LymphocyteLover Feb 2021 #28
Right. The hospitals released them when they no longer needed hospital care. pnwmom Feb 2021 #33
and the CDC did say it was ok with the proper safetey protocols LymphocyteLover Feb 2021 #34
The problem for NY is that they were the first hard hit, after Washington. pnwmom Feb 2021 #35
that is true... they were flying blind early on and not by choice LymphocyteLover Feb 2021 #38
The temporary hospitals that lay unused? MichMan Feb 2021 #41
Not back into the most vulnerable population MichMan Feb 2021 #43
I don't think it was stupid. It was following the Medicaid law, and the majority of patients pnwmom Feb 2021 #32
New York didn't do a coverup. It's privately run nursing homes that did that. Same for other states. ancianita Feb 2021 #13
Nope. former9thward Feb 2021 #14
Nice mostly false rightwing talking point FreeState Feb 2021 #17
Yep the Republican opposition is riding this hard mdelaguna Feb 2021 #20
Tell that to NY AG James. former9thward Feb 2021 #22
where were these patients supposed to go if they were too healthy to be in the hospital? LymphocyteLover Feb 2021 #29
Thanks for your post. She's not lying. But she made a decision that Cuomo's getting the hit for. ancianita Feb 2021 #18
Why did Cuomo's own chief of staff admit they did not disclose the true numbers intentionally. MichMan Feb 2021 #44
Why depends on the dates, and when they knew their decision didn't work, doesn't it. ancianita Feb 2021 #45
It's the New York Post, it's where facts go to die. Initech Feb 2021 #15
i doubt this is just New York bucolic_frolic Feb 2021 #16
For all the latest hype, NY was #34 in total, not per capita, nursing home deaths, yet it has ancianita Feb 2021 #21
exactly-- even per capita they weren't bad either LymphocyteLover Feb 2021 #30
Cuomo should have called out the private nursing homes for suppressing data. Did he? Evolve Dammit Feb 2021 #23
Damn Rethugs Can't Even Report on Death Honestly... clementine613 Feb 2021 #24

Doesn't this create an odd irony for the Covid deniers? jb5150 Feb 2021 #27
I suspect this story is way overblown and being misrepresented by the NYPost, FoxNews-style LymphocyteLover Feb 2021 #31
Reactionary social media grifters with bus loads of followers will eat this up dustyscamp Feb 2021 #36
That's all right wing trash does JI7 Feb 2021 #39
