When the original Covid virus came to America, experts stated that the elderly and those with preexisting conditions would be the most vulnerable. That was probably their only truthful statement during the entire epidemic. One of the things that happened in some states, New York being one of them, is that elderly people with Covid were sent back to nursing homes while they were still contagious. This defies common sense. This significantly increased the death toll in some states. One group investigating the mistakes that were made during the pandemic is the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. On Monday, The New York Post<\/a> posted an article on some of the findings of that Committee.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Gov. Andrew Cuomo allegedly himself \u201cedited\u201d a state report that deflated New York\u2019s COVID-19 death toll in nursing homes \u2014 which his top aides pressured health officials into releasing, despite knowing the issue would turn into a \u201cgreat debacle,\u201d according to the stunning results of an investigation by a US House committee.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cuomo\u2019s office \u201cabsolutely\u201d signed off on the disastrous directive early in the pandemic forcing coronavirus patients back into nursing homes \u2014 leading to as many as 9,000 excess COVID deaths \u2014 the final congressional report and witness testimonies exclusively obtained by The Post show.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic conducted the probe and majority staff released the findings ahead of a public hearing<\/a> with the 66-year-old ex-governor on Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The investigators accused Cuomo in a memo Monday of making \u201cdemonstrably false\u201d statements as part of a \u201ccover-up,\u201d citing conflicting testimony from his top aides.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is going to be the great debacle in the history books,\u201d wrote Cuomo aide Stephanie Benton in a June 7, 2020, email about the nursing home death count. \u201cDon\u2019t u [sic] see how bad this is? Or do we admit error and give up?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Other language in the state report was constantly being edited by Cuomo through one of his top aides. More quotes from the White House were worked in strategically, giving the impression that Cuomo was helpless in the face of the bureaucracy and was simply “following the lead” set by Washington. These were not minor corrections. This was, as Cuomo’s own aides put it, a coverup, plain and simple. Some might readily identify it as fraud. Sadly, it’s probably too late at this point to restore any sort of justice to the families who lost their elderly loved ones in this fashion. Andrew Cuomo appears to have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He’s been caught engaging in all manner of shady dealings, but he always seems to skate away at the last moment by the skin of his teeth.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There were other resources available for Governor Cuomo to place the elderly who were recovering from Covid–Samaritan’s Purse had set up a field hospital in Central Park, and there was a hospital ship docked in the city. I am not sure whether the Governor used either facility. People died because of incompetency or a lack of common sense on the part of the Governor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
