Maybe a test run to see how fast dems can get rid of the elderly...Frees up a lot of money..No medicare,no medicaid etc.....

This in itself is not only an absolute disgrace but a enormous scandal any time let alone right now.

Turns out that they shoulda turned the Javits Center into a Covid convalescence unit . . .

RE :”States are facing dire prospects in funding, and Medicare/Medicaid are significant chunks of the states’ budgets.
Putting elderly COVID-19 patients in nursing homes is a solution to that problem. Infect the aged and infirm, then they die and ... Voila! Lower Medicare/Medicaid spending.”

Pretty obvious, and they get to use the same sick/ elderly residents as an excuse to lock down everyone else in NY.

I bet once the residents contract it they don't get to go to the hospital either, they are considered ‘dead weight’

Kill off the old folks who are “sucking up” Medicare and Medicaid tax dollars and just might vote Republican while they are still alive. And when does it begin calling the deaths “deferred abortions?”

He knows people will die. This is murder.
