Whatever the original purpose was, he's now just trying to raise his national political profile.

 

..he'd be the PERFECT mayor of Arcade, right?......

What in the world did they expect? They were fortunate it wasn't a "snitches get stitches" situation.

Mayor Bill de Blasio’s critics let him know how they really felt about him ordering New Yorkers to snitch on each other for violating social-distancing rules — by flooding his new tip line with crank complaints including “dick pics” and people flipping the bird, The Post has learned.

Now Cuomo is upset other states won’t pay his state’s unfunded pensions lolololol. How can NYS waste that huge tax money year after year after year? Stupid is as stupid does. Maybe NY should stop “non-essential” spending???

Saint Andrew of Albany

by Robert Stacy McCain

Original Article

 

Every day, cable-news channels provide live coverage of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s briefings about his state’s response to the coronavirus pandemic. What has happened in New York is not merely the worst COVID-19 outbreak in America, but possibly the worst in the entire world. Such are the biases of our news media, however, that no one ever suggests Cuomo is responsible for the deadly toll of this disease in his state. Instead, the Democratic governor is treated with deference by the press corps, which instead — and rather illogically — focuses the blame on President Trump.

I asked yesterday -

If you live in a nursing home, and are recovered enough from COVID-19 to not be in the hospital, where exactly should you go? Many nursing homes are rehab centers, too.

(And I ask this as someone whose father is in a NYS nursing home, and who has had several staff cases in the home where he resides.)

Copied from my answer to you in the stats thread:

 

 

Not to sound harsh, but I would say absolutely NOT! Problem in a nursing home, and probably the main reason we have so many infected, is that most of them have a single tied together air system. So even if you only have one infected, lock them in their room, it WILL spread through the air system. Their not isolated systems like a hospital ward or even a darn hotel. 

 

We are really really screwing up in nursing homes and we don't need a Cuomo multi-million dollar study to find out how.

So, where do they go if not to their home?

This is a point I think that many people have trouble grasping.  ( * I ran a long term care unit for three years.)

 

They may look the same from the outside, but it is not like a hospital or a hotel.............This where these seniors live, some for many many years.

 

Taking them out of that environment is very hard on them.

 

 

NO, I don't have a perfect solution.........far from it.

 

but I always wince when I hear about plans to isolate them "for their own good"

My in-laws are in a facility now. They cannot leave their rooms for any reason other than to be taken to the hospital. After that, they are returned to their room and not allowed to leave.

Wish I had that answer for you. In my own case, both parents suffered long illnesses and we took them home for the last year or so of their lives. I know with a lot of people that isn't possible but I'm a firm believer in that Honor your Father and Mother thing still holds especially later in life when they in turn need you.

But regardless, we were a55 backwards in all of this, locking in healthy people who for the most part would be asymptomatic when we should have focused more on the vulnerable to keep the disease out of there altogether.
