Cuomo has come under increasing criticism for a March 25 directive requiring nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients. The directive read, in part (original emphasis): “No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the NH [nursing home] solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19. NHs are prohibited from requiring a hospitalized resident who is determined medically stable to be tested for COVID-19 prior to admission or readmission.”
The policy is being scrutinized more closely as some 25% of the state’s fatalities from coronavirus have occurred in nursing homes.
Critics argue that the state should not have put coronavirus patients in facilities housing the elderly, who are the most vulnerable to the illness. New Jersey and California have similar policies.
Cuomo has insisted that it is the nursing homes’ responsibility to refer patients to the state department of health, or to other facilities, if they cannot care for those patients.

More facts come out, it looks like NY majorly Screwed this.
There will be lawsuits for years on end.
I wonder if the media at his press briefings have even asked him about the nursing home order. If they have, they probably asked him one time like a defense attorney who gives his client a chance to defend himself. I would be shocked if they came back at him after he obfuscated, denied, or shifted the blame.
Depends if he keeps NYC or not.
As the city goes, so goes the state.
Cuomo is only in because of NYC.
To the moon, Cuomo, to the moon!
Andrew, Andrew, Andrew..................Idiot, stop blaming the nursing homes for your OWN FAILURE, moron!
This is classic Cuomo.
Whenever his back is up against a wall, he selects a group to demonize & hide behind.
There NEVER is
And the state (taxpayers) will lose, biggly.
Go home and get your shine box Andy. Your way out of your league.
