Here we go again.

Gov. Kathy Hochul signed an executive order Friday to postpone elective hospital surgeries — something that hasn’t been done since the worst of the initial coronavirus outbreak last year.

Hochul said she made the move to deal with staffing shortages and boost bed capacity amid an anticipated “spike” in new cases and the emergence of the new Omicron variant in South Africa. The strain is named after a letter of the Greek alphabet.

“We’ve taken extraordinary action to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and combat this pandemic. However, we continue to see warning signs of spikes this upcoming winter, and while the new Omicron variant has yet to be detected in New York State, it’s coming,” Hochul said.

Too bad all those unvaccinated nurses and doctors got fired.
Maybe SloJo can send a hospital ship or something.

Shouldn’t need it with the next step - curfews and then lockdowns. If you are forced to stay home, you can spend the entire day in a chair or on a couch, so no need for any miniscus.

She should have zero business being able to shut down peoples’ surgeries. None.

They could put out advisories, i dont have problems with warnings or sharing info, etc.

She has no business with this power. She may not even legally have it.

Gov. Kathy Hochul signed an executive order Friday to postpone elective hospital surgeries.

How would this B$tch define elective surgeries as noted below, as necessary or don’t do them?

Cardiac stents to be implanted? Cardiac pace makers to be implanted?

Cancer operations to remove cancers from patients’ brains, breasts, uteruses, prostrates or testicles or where ever?

Knee or hip replacements to replace knees or hips wearing out, due to arthritis and old age?

Replacement of shoulders damaged due to accidents or arthritis?

Carpal Tunnel surgery to enable one to work again?

Toe removal,foot surgery or hand surgery to enable a patient to walk and work without pain

Would she and unknown doctors and non doctors form committees to decide what surgeries will be done or not done?

So the WHO is skipping from Nu variant to Omicron variant… maybe because the Greek letter in between is Xi?! Hahahah. Can’t make this stuff up.— Liz Wheeler (@Liz_Wheeler) November 26, 2021

“...elective surgery-—>ass lifts and nose jobs...”

...collapsed disc surgery, knee replacement surgery,
hip replacement surgery, hernia surgery, cataract surgery...

She can't just simply issue an executive order to take away peoples rights.

Who does she think she is, Fauci?

This is a typical woman acting solely on emotions and is a perfect example of why we should never elect a woman for President.
