New Yorks health commissioner on Monday defended a directive that requires nursing homes to readmit residents whove tested positive for the coronavirus as Gov. Andrew Cuomo revealed he didnt know the policy was in place.
Cuomo was asked about the states policy on admitting or re-admitting to nursing homes people whod tested positive for COVID-19.
Thats a good question, I dont know, the governor said.
Cuomos startling admission came days after the state revealed last week that at least 3,316 people in nursing homes and adult care facilities had died of coronavirus at their residences or in hospitals across the state.

If this was Trump, it would be breaking news on CNN and on Drudge in big red letters.
Where did he think they were going to go?
Government. The venue that allows totally self-absorbed idiots to think of themselves as superstars.
I want to infect everybody else and kill them all off?
Dunk It You Donut
Way to be right on top of things there, Guv
It’s ONLY the biggest panic pandemic in the history of modern man(!)
I would have thought the hospital would hold onto them until they were no longer shedding virus.
And if that wasn’t possible they should have gone to a special quarantine facility.
To send a person sick with Coronavirus back into a nursing home setting that is not equipped for it is insane.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo revealed he didnt know the policy was in place.
Oh yeah, definitely, the Demwits should boot Biden and draft Cuomo.
Moron, where do you think they should go? Should your relatives shoot them in the head and dump them in a ditch???
Liberals really are just dangerously devious and stupid.
Wait, the Hate Trump crowd says all chief executives should know EVERYTHING going on under their command and be personally responsible for any shortcomings or screw-ups.
The level of idiocy in government knows no bounds.
Fedzilla changed the regs so nursing homes didn’t have to take back WuFlu patients if a facility wasn’t adequately prepared to do so.
Cuomo didn’t know this?
Bravo Sierra.
Cuomo and Albany knew enough to insert legislation into the new budget that protects the state’s nursing homes from both criminal and civil liability in WuFlu cases....
That fact is one of a legion of things that that CLUELESS DUNCE doesn’t know about.

Here is what I have been able to figure out. And Im sure many others have surmised. Hydroxychloriquine has been outlawed by Dr Cuomo the arrogant, Governor of NY and many other rat govenor dictators in other states unless you enter the hospital, we can see that this drug cocktail works at the onset and should be administered at home before you are taken to the hospital. When you are admitted into the hospital and put on a ventialtor its to late for you. So what are these dictator govenors doing? Deliberatley over crowding thier hospitals, spiking the numbers? continuing the shut down and over reaching their authority on us? This doesnt just stink like rotten fish it stinks like dog sh##
He should have used some of those beds the federal government built NYC.
What was that Scrooge said “...decrease the surplus population....”
BS, he knew
I am in contact with a pharmacist friend in NY, He works in a local pharmacy as well as a hospital. He has come down with the virus is at home battling it and they wont give him the medication unless he goes into the hospital and he told me “if I go in I am not coming out” his words! WHAT MORE EVIDENCE DO WE NEED!
Maybe if he spent less time working on his comedy act with his brother...he would have known.
