Most new Covid-19 hospitalizations in New York state are from people who were staying home and not venturing much outside, a “shocking” finding, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Wednesday.

The preliminary data was from 100 New York hospitals involving about 1,000 patients, Cuomo said at his daily briefing.

It shows that 66% of new admissions were from people who had largely been sheltering at home. The next highest source of admissions was from nursing homes, 18%.

Repeated close contact versus daily fresh air.

this is just more proof that we are led by thugs and idiots. We need to vote everyone who is currently an office out and start fresh by voting against every incumbent in the primary elections. Trump excluded.

Every decision New York made made it worse.

Cuomo was allowing positive staff to work in the facilities, too, until last week...

He should watch Pandemic the movie Doctors said once the quarantine is lifted that would happen. Being sequestered made their bodies immune system lower.

More than 4,000 people live in LeFrak City an enormous apartment complex. All they have to do is get in the elevator, get the mail or use the laundry room and they’re probably exposed.

The Department of Pandemia has just issued a directive that people with backyards immediately begin building underground Virus Shelters in anticipation of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, ... Nth wave of this dreaded dreadful disease. Note: Bomb Shelters will suffice.

Lockdown must be declared early like PDJT did to be effective in my non-medical opinion, which Cuomo didn’t do if I remember.

So Cuomo sent people home where they probably got less sunlight needed for vitamin D production which put them in a higher risk group, especially if quarantined with someone who possibly already had the virus.

Corrections, insights welcome.

Send “Orange Man Bad” federal and state government Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping COVID-19 will effectively give fast-working Trump a third term in office imo.

Does he include the hundreds of COVID positive he sent to a Nursing home, Hospice, and Assisted Living facilities to infect the most vulnerable?

He also pretty much ignored the Samaritin Purse tent hospital in Central Park, as well as the USNS Comfort, that has left.

This man should be tried for involuntary man-slaughter. He made every wrong decision he could possibly make. Now? He's ordering cleaning of the NY Subways? That would have taken priority over many other moves.

Governor Cuomo is a disgrace and will go down in history as such.

Perhaps New York City dwellers just do not wash all that much.

Or.... maybe rats, mice, cockroaches or other vermin are vectors for the disease.

I have visited that slob city many times and I am disgusted by how they just put their trash on the sidewalks in big stinking filthy heaps and the rats just come out to feast.

So will this mental giant lift the stay-in-your-home order and let people get outside, now that he's aware of these numbers?

No, because he's shocked his order hasn't worked in reducing hospitalizations. So being a democRAT, he'll just double down on the order and start arresting people for going outside.

Well, immune systems are very much weakened when confined, for one thing.

I was wondering the same thing. If you lock people away for an extended period of time, I'd think the strength of their immune systems would drop. I don't know that for sure, but it's something I've wondered.

I've thought about the adage that allowing kids to get dirty helps them develop stronger immune systems. While keeping things constantly sterile leads to weakened natural immunity and increased susceptibility to disease.

Just goes to show that if you force people to stay home, and only go out for necessities, it doesn’t do any good unless they wear masks when out and have their temperature checked.

So no surprise.

I have long thought that “isolating” in your home or in a nursing home was probably the best way to guarantee that not only did you get it, you got a really bad case of it.

Everything depends on the viral load. A light load (from casual contact of some kind) is enough to trigger the immune system to fight back and it is usually successful at that point. But being in an enclosed place, breathing the same virus-laden air for days on end, and in other words giving yourself a serious, concentrated dose of virus, is the thing that totally swamps the immune system, especially in an older or weaker person.

I noticed in Italy, too, that it was elderly couples locked into their homes or nursing home patients, locked into their wards, who seemed to get the sickest and have the highest rate of fatalities.
