New York City's health commissioner brutally dismissed an urgent request from the NYPD for 500,000 protective face masks as the scale of the coronavirus crisis grew. Sources told the New York Post that Dr. Oxiris Barbot told a high ranking NYPD official 'I don't give two rats' ***** [ed] about your cops' when the request was made. The remark is said to have been made in March during a phone conversation with Terence Monahan, the police force's Chief of Department, the Post was told on Wednesday by sources close to the matter. Monahan had asked Barbot for 500,000 masks to help protect police officers in the city from the coronavirus as cases were rising sharply, but she told him only 50,000 could be provided.

Follow the trail, her boss deblowjob and his boss cuckold. Think any of these pukes are going to be held responsible for their actions and the murder of 5500 elderly in nursing homes

A good part of why NY and NJ failed big in the corona response is political hacks holding the Health Official posts in those states. They were there for LBGT promotion, racists ploys and other agnda.

People died — a lot.

‘I don’t give two rats’ ***** [ed] about your cops’

Not a good look. That should be the end of her career. Will NYC care?

[Empire_of_Liberty]

It’s not a full quotation, but it does sound like she knows how to talk to Gotham’s simpering Chief of Police.

I don’t have problem one, with her assigning priority to medical personnel who are going to be in the faces of coughing victims of this thing, day in and day out, over someone writing parking tickets. It’s a level of sense not often on display in New York.

I dunno but she was born in Belleview hospital in nyc...I thought that was where they put the crazy people. FWIW she is of Puerto Rican decent and he dad shot himself when she was nine y/o.

This is true across the country. "Public Health" has become a euphemism for Social Justice. Gun control, free abortions, "underserved" communities, free school lunches and other crap. Public Health Departments across the country have absolutely no clue how to deal with epidemics because that hasn't been their primary mission for decades. Public Health Departments employ more Social Workers than MD's.

Another government employed, incompetent moron.

Sounds about right for NYC.

What a sewer.

Beat me to it.

Oxiris is a wHorus. She can Ramses her directives up her Anubis-snout. And there’s nothing Isis can do to save this Bast.

Dr Barbot is a one person wrecking crew. After the last flight into NY from Wuhan on Jan 23, Dr Barbot said on Jan 26 those “who had recently traveled from Wuhan were not being urged to self-quarantine or avoid large public gatherings.” She is reflective of the garbage in, garbage out quality of the hires of her trashy boss, Mayor De Blasio. She is not qualified to work a fryer at McDonald’s let alone manage the NYC covid crisis.

[Midnitethecat]

I wonder how many deaths can be attributed to affirmative action hires and diversity is our strength.

[Crucial]

It’s got to be tough these days for these government Democrats who have lived lavishly on the hog and have to compete with the funding that is fighting a national war against an epidemic.
