For the record, let me state that I agree with your sentiment: I think Cuomo should be keelhauled for his elder care policies that effectively guaranteed that homes for the elderly would become de facto morgues. How that man remains free is beyond comprehension.
Actually, what got my goat was the challenge to my efficiency argument, i.e. that NYS killed disproportionately less elderly - either as a proportion of total COVID19 fatalities or relative to that lot's population percentage - than Sweden. As criminally stupid as was NYS in this regard, Sweden somehow managed to equal if not exceed NYS' record. I don't believe Sweden intended to kill off the elderly - from my readings it was just sloppy management though euthanasia is generally legal there and, perhaps, some people in those facilities thought euthanizing the old folks was ok.
I've done an inordinate amount of reading on Sweden's approach to the virus. They got a lot right (i.e. kept schools open for kids 16 and under, let business stay open, etc) and weren't draconian in their social distancing etc. I'd actually like for the US to have a similar approach. But many conservatives, in their zeal to hoist SE on their shoulders, omit Sweden's relatively higher body count, that their economy was still materially impacted (though their dependence on tourism was part of that carnage, and we will see what 2Q GDP looks like soon), that herd immunity was NEVER an explicit goal of this approach, and (most importantly) the fact that Sweden got to their hands-off approach by their "smart people" saying "science" tells them to do this and everyone marched in lockstep. I totally get the desire to champion Sweden's approach, but their "faith in science" and attendant authority bias isn't to be lauded - it may have been right in Coronavirus but it's dead wrong on "green policies" and firearms policy.
As for the Corleone family analogies, I've always said that if Chris Cuomo is Fredo, then Andrew Cuomo is this sibling...:
...excluding GF 3 where she becomes someone to be feared.
Would knowing the respective population comorbidities help explain the differences?
