22 May: AP count: Over 4,300 virus patients sent to NY nursing homes
by BERNARD CONDON, JENNIFER PELTZ and JIM MUSTIAN. Associated Press investigative researcher Randy Herschaft contributed to this report.
Nationally, over 35,500 people have died from coronavirus outbreaks at nursing homes and long-term care facilities, about a third of the overall death toll, according to the APs running tally.
Cuomo has deflected criticism over the nursing home directive by saying it stemmed from Trump administration guidance. Still, few states went as far as New York and neighboring New Jersey, which has the second-most care home deaths, in discharging hospitalized coronavirus patients to nursing homes.
