Deep Dive: Devastating Report Exposes Cuomo and De Blasio’s Disastrous Coronavirus Response
After enjoying many weeks of media hero worship — including numerous cutesy interviews with his brother, a CNN anchor who violated his quarantine while symptomatic and contagious with the virus, then lied about it — New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is finally facing serious scrutiny for his policies and decisions throughout the outbreak that has devastated his state. We’ve been telling you about the failures involving New York City’s subway system, as well as the extremely reckless and lethal policies that forced or allowed COVID-positive residents and employees into nursing homes.

The church said it had initially resumed in-person services weeks back as Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp began to ease coronavirus restrictions on nonessential businesses in April. At the time, the church said it had also made sure to adhere to social distancing guidelines advised to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
“Seating was marked to only permit sitting within the six-foot guidelines, all doors were open to allow access without the touching of doors, and attendees were asked to enter in a social distancing manner and were dismissed in a formal manner as well to ensure that the social distancing measures were adhered by all,” the church told the outlet.
However, the church said it ultimately decided to discontinue all in-person services last week “until further notice in an effort of extreme caution for the safety and well-being of our families.”
