The New York police sergeants union described city health commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot as a “bitch” Wednesday in response to revelations that she told an NYPD official she didn’t give “two rats’ asses” about cops getting safety masks.
“Truth is this bitch has blood on her hands but why should anyone be surprised the NYPD has suffered under DeBlasio since he became Mayor,” the Sergeants Benevolent Association tweeted in response to The Post’s exclusive story revealing Barbot’s decision.
The health commissioner said in a mid-March phone conversation with NYPD Chief of Department Terence Monahan, “I don’t give two rats’ asses about your cops,” in response to the mask request, sources said.
“I need them for others,” Barbot said.
Instead of the 500,000 masks Monahan sought to help protect his force, Barbot said she could only cough up 50,000, according to sources.
Department of Health spokesman Patrick Gallahue acknowledged that there was a “heated exchange between the two where things were said out of frustration, but no harm was wished on anyone.” Barbot “apologized for her contribution to the exchange,” Gallahue added.
Shortly after the SBA’s tweet, the union’s president, Edward Mullins, sent a statement calling for Barbot’s ouster.
The union, in a separate press release, said that if Barbot’s remarks are true, “Ed Mullins, the President of the 13,000 member NYC Sergeants Benevolent Association, believes that Dr. Barbot should be immediately fired.”
“Dr. Barbot’s comments make it clear she has no personal or professional regard for the police,” the union said in the release.

NYC health head rejected NYPD mask plea: ‘I don’t give two rats’ asses about your cops’
Interesting quote from the above article: "Although surgical masks don’t necessarily prevent wearers from being infected with the coronavirus, they can prevent people from spreading it to others."
Most media outlets do not admit that fact.
I am sure de Blasio agrees with her. He hates the NYPD.
And surprisingly they will all vote for him again in the next election....
Who is the real “bitch” here?
Actually in another article DeBlasio was at a meeting sitting between these two and asked what he talking about and said that cops need them. Also just took trace testing away from her agency.
She should be fired.
Instead of the 500,000 masks Monahan sought to help protect his force, Barbot said she could only cough up 50,000, according to sources.

Clough up? Writer be having fun.
Well, it is the NY Post. It is legendary for that.
I think we have found Gretchen Whitmer’s older sister.
CCc
the police need to be healthy as they arrest hairdressers trying to make a living and place them in cells vacated by prisoners released so they wouldn’t get sick
One of the best Post headlines ever.
Are homemade masks effective? Does two layers of clothes stop flatulence from reaching your nose?
These scumbags should be removed form office all of them, They murdered the elderly, people of color, and the people who work for the city, police fire ect.
I've been in meetings with high-level NYPD staff and was astounded by the swear words that are tossed about during business meetings with outsiders, even by the women.
It completes the look.
