CNN's Chris Cuomo Claims Florida 'Mishandled' the COVID-19 Pandemic, Not New York

Vice President Pence was in Florida on Monday. He met with Florida governor Ron DeSantis while he was there, and praised him for his leadership during the pandemic. This praise by Pence, the head of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, triggered CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, the baby brother of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. Chris Cuomo reacted to the praise on Twitter. “Head of task force praising gov who mishandled pandemic,” Cuomo tweeted.

Now, let’s look at new COVID-19 deaths by day. NY vs. Florida

That big blue spike on the left is New York. Where’s the big, huge, orange spike for Florida? Oh wait, there isn’t one.

What about cases? Well, let’s take a look. The following chart shows that Florida hasn’t even matched New York’s case numbers per capita:

I can handle things! I’m smart! Not like everybody says... like dumb... Florida’s dumb. I’m smart and I want respect!

Anyone with more than 2 brain cells knows Chris Cuomo is a hack.

A LITTLE EXPLANATION OF THE ABOVE CASES CHART IN POST #3:

Of course, this chart does show that Florida has been catching up in total confirmed cases, but that’s partially due to our expanded testing capabilities over time. So, let’s look at the case-fatality ratio.



Look at that. New York’s case-fatality ratio is still way above Florida’s. Also, Florida’s CFR has gone down since peaking, while New York’s has remained fairly consistent and very high.

Just another excerpt from the new book “Fredo Speaks”

That’s because gov Coumo had those daily COVID press briefings so the # of NYers dead doesn’t matter.

Remember when asked about the nursing homes he resonded “People(NYERs) will die” ??

NY vs FL for daily COVID-19 CASE FATALITY RATE (CFR)

NY vs. FL for COVID-19 hospitalization.

What’s this smear campaign of Florida all about? CNN, particularly Chris Cuomo, seems intent on turning Florida into the new COVID-19 hotspot, even though by any metric, there’s no way Florida comes close to looking as bad as New York. Is the media trying to make sure that Trump loses Florida by bashing the state’s Trump-supporting GOP governor? Certainly. But is it more than that? Is it also about repairing Governor Cuomo’s reputation after his botched pandemic response? If so, why?

I can’t tell you how much I now detest these news worms. I absolutely can’t stand them.

Most leftists believe in New Age stuff. Could someone set up a realistic “ghost” visit by some victims of older brother Cuomo’s deadly edict to set them up for Covid nursing home deaths?

High tech special effects team could send the ghosts with eerie audio each night to little Cuomo’s bedroom.

“Tell the truth about us. We will never rest and neither will you until you tell the truth. We died because of your brother.”

Christina in kitchen: “Chris, it’s the middle of the night. Why are you sitting there?”

Cuomo: “Uh, it’s just that bad food cart burrito. Won’t let up. Never again. Giving me nightmares.”

chris Cuomo is only kept around to make his brother look intelligent

Hey Chris, remind us again where your brother’s state stands in terms of COVID-19 fatalities per 1 million population?

Oh yeah, it’s 1,682. Florida? 295.

Thanks for playing. Enjoy visiting your brother in prison for criminally negligent homicide when this is all over.
