Patients in New York hospitals must now test negative for the coronavirus before they can be discharged to nursing homes, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Sunday — partially reversing a policy that forced sickened seniors into facilities housing those most vulnerable.
“We’re just not going to send a person who is positive to a nursing home after a hospital visit,” said Cuomo during an Albany press briefing. “Period.”
The ruling partially overrides a controversial March 25 order that nursing homes cannot deny admission or readmission on the basis of a positive or suspected COVID-19 case.

They could have been using that huge ship that Trump had pulled into New York until last week. It was way underutilized.
To: lee martell
We might need that ship if there’s a war. The ship was there to take patients OTHER than Wuhan types not to take COVID patients.

Wonder if Fauci is taking Clorox baths.

Originally, yes, but the left couldn’t resist the temptation to contaminate half the hospital ships our troops might need in a war, and made them take COVID patients...

And they will still vote for the idiot again despite it taking him almost 2 months during. CCPVirus to decide to clean the subway daily. They need to ask why it wasn’t done daily for years.

The ship left a few weeks ago and the Javits center was winding down to get dismantled soon.

Will Covid-19 survivors face a lifetime of illness? At supposedly $39,000 per Civid death he's run up some serious money from the CDC and Government. 26,641 deaths in N.Y. @ $39,000 each = $1,038,999,000.
That's right OVER ONE BILLION DOLLARS!

After he killed a few thousand people. At supposedly $39,000 per Civid death he's run up some serious money from the CDC and Government. 26,641 deaths in N.Y. @ $39,000 each = $1,038,999,000.

To: lee martell
I see it both ways.....you're taking valuable time and space for people that are not seriously ill.....
doing more testing may keep the patients in the hospital for several weeks....
they should have established specific nursing homes for patients to go to covid positive only...
