Gov. Cuomo admits he was wrong to order nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has finally admitted — tacitly and partially, anyway — the mistake that was state health chief Howard Zucker’s order that nursing homes must admit coronavirus-positive patients.

On Sunday, Cuomo announced a new regulation: Such patients must now test negative for the virus before hospitals can return them to nursing homes. Yet the gov also admitted that COVID-19 cases might still go to the facilities via other routes, and didn’t explicitly overrule Zucker’s March 25 mandate that homes must accept people despite their testing status — indeed, couldn’t even require a test pre-admission.

Keep this “brilliant expertise” in mind when you read about the explanations as to why Southern California is being kept shut down for another 3 months.

  1. Cuomo need to kill elderly to match the quota now that there aren’t as many abortion as before lock down.

  2. WE have two groups of opportunists in America… The Communist and the Gangsters… Cuomo is the gangster from NY & NJ… Eastern New England… The West coast Communist’s use that to their advantage. They are complementary to each other…..

    The truth is that the Republic of the USA does not need gangsters, nor Communists to achieve the American Dream….Simple Six Pack Americans are the true Core of America

    The PM of Singapore ..Lee… was a wise Chinese politician who was educated in “Fabian” Oxford. He tried to deal with the China Communist’s, but until he executed them he had violent riots….Singapore is a success although not Democratic…. A bullet behind the ear will change corrupt agendas…

    JMHO

    1. “Simple Six Pack Americans are the true Core of America”

      LOL no it isn’t. Average People (TM) are most of the reason the US is going broke.

      1. LOL no it isn’t.
        LOL no what isn’t?

        Welcome to the well established UnMe argument clinic.

    1. Please tell which experts are the experts?

      The ones who said masks don’t work, and now recommend masks?

      The ones who said travel bans don’t work?

      The ones who said there is no evidence of human to human transmission?

      The ones who said we need tens of thousands of ventilators?

      The ones who said get out and about and enjoy the crowded areas of NYC? And I’m talking health experts, not politicians.

      The ones who say keep the lock down going until we have a vaccine? Ok when’s the vaccine coming?

      The epidemiological modeler who’s model was believed in in UK and US, but we now find out you can’t replicate the model’s results. The 15,000 line bug ridden model?

      Again I ask which experts?

    2. experts are the ones advising the politicians, so you just sound stupid, which is standard from for you.

    3. The problem is “experts” and their models which the UnMees worship.

      The UnMees knees.

  3. Lots of suspicions that blue states are trying to prevent an economic rebound prior to November. I used to write off conspiracy theories. Used to. That was before I realized there was no limit to government depravity.

  4. LA will remain SHUT DOWN for another 3 mos. … because … “data” and “science”.

    And that same “data” and “science” informed the County’s reopening of the beaches … where ONLY active recreation will be allowed. ONLY: running, walking, swimming, and surfing is allowed. No sunbathing is allowed. No beach towels, umbrellas, or coolers. Why? Because “science” and “data” proved that sitting still on the beach, slathered in SP-30 … is … “dangerous? Please DO show me that “science” and “data”. Seriously. I’ll wait … dum dum de dum dum dum …

    Ohhhh … I see … the “science” and “data” are really … “appearances”. The “science” of Photographing sunbathers from a parallel viewpoint makes the sunbathers “appear” closer together than 6ft. because of “depth of field”. And since politicians don’t want to “appear” to make “unsafe” decisions … you cannot enjoy the beach in your normal fashion.

    Our politicians are “brilliant”

  5. Michigan and Pennsylvania are doing the same thing. I am in Michigan and spent an entire day trying to find a clean mask for a family member who works in a nursing home. She had worn the same mask for a month, but needed a new one because she had been in contact with a covid+ patient (who had become ill verrry coincidentally after they shipped a positive patient in to convalesce and transmit to the population). I found her a mask, but then spent another day trying to find a government employee who cared about this endangerment of the elderly, to no avail. Initial patients did well with hydroxychloroquine, zpac, and zinc, but they suddenly stopped that treatment and have lost at least 3 more patients while managing another 15 infections. Oddly enough, our governor directed that these patients be sent to either our temporary hospitals OR nursing homes, but has since had the temporary hospitals dismantled after spending millions of dollars and treating just tens of people. But. We must ruin the economy to save even just ONE life.

  6. In his world sending people to death is just a collateral damage of an ideology.
    Does not matter how many people died, he will get a pass and will be a hero to go to bigger things.

    It’s also extra cash from the damned orange man.
