NY Assemblyman: Putting COVID Patients in Nursing Homes ‘Cost a Lot of Lives’ – ‘Would Be Very Helpful’ if Cuomo Admitted Mistakes
Breitbart ^ | May 22 2020 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 05/23/2020 1:21:37 AM PDT by knighthawk

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” New York State Assemblyman Ron Kim (D) stated that New York state’s decision to send coronavirus-positive patients into nursing homes “cost a lot of lives” and “it would be very helpful” to those who lost loved ones if New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) admitted more about mistakes that he made.

Kim said, “I was absolutely shocked that the state of New York sent so many people back to nursing homes, when nursing homes aren’t hospitals. These are COVID-positive patients that should have been treated at hospitals or other facilities that were equipped to take them in. And everyone was shocked at that time, and many of us pushed back, wrote letters to the Department of Health, and asked them to stop the policy and transfer those patients out. And other states who actually initially put in those orders, scaled back immediately, recognizing the mistakes that they made, but it took us about two months to recognize that error, and it cost a lot of lives in that time period.”

He added that “there will be plenty of time to figure out why he [Gov. Cuomo] did this, and who made the mistake, but right now, we just need to move forward and get this right.”

Yeah, of course, “Move along, there’s nothing to see here”, those vile, venal, gutless sewer rats. Try to kick the can down the road to avoid culpability for mass deaths, blame everyone up to and including Trump for the whys and wherefores. If there’s any sort of justice, the name Cuomo will be excised from American politices in perpetuity.

He had a good chance of getting the nod in 2024. all he had to do was not say terrible or idiotic things. But he couldn’t last :-)

“Elections have consequences.”

Electing people like Cuomo costs lives. It’s just usually not as visible as it is right now with a pandemic ripping through the older generation of this country.

I am so TOTALLY cynical of the rat 🐀 bastards. I believe EVERYTHING they do has evil intentions. How do we know it was a mistake, to put COVID patients in nursing homes? Maybe they did it deliberately, to kill off old people, that they wish would just die.

Kim is guilty of apostasy. The Prince has decided his fate. The manner of his appropriate punishment will not be disclosed.

Notice this is a Dem calling out Coumo. Not good when your own crew turns on you.

The rats keep stepping on garden rakes.

They corrupted their own primaries to boot Bernie.

Now they have a rapist, corrupt nominee sliding into dementia.

Cuomo to the rescue? After killing thousands of grannies?

The rats should instead nominate that crazy black woman from GA, Stacey Abrams.

Cuomos decision is absolutely unsupportable. We were quarantining the healthy and mixing together the stricken and the MOST vulnerable.

Leftist governors can murder people in this country with no consequences.

Democrats hate you, folks and would murder alk of you if they knew they could get away with it. The only thing stopping them is the 2nd amendment.

Buy guns and ammo, folks.

It wasn’t a mistake.

It was a plan.

They knew what they were doing.

They kept doing it.

Until they got caught.

Can’t be repeated enough that thousands of people died unnecessarily because of Cuomo’s fatal mismanagement and equally fatal error of judgment.... This is all on him and Dibasio.

Cuomo is a democrat, they NEVER apologize or admit mistakes, and the media never hold them to account for anything they do or say. That’s the rules of the game.

Rep. Ron Kim should realize that Coomo doesn't see these as mistakes, but medicare/medicaid billing opportunities.

Coomo doesn't care he can be governor as long as he wants in this shiite hole state.

Well at least Cuomo didn’t put 20 year old mentally ill patients with the virus in nursing homes to beat 70 year old patients to a pulp.
