Today was a sort of macabre milestone.\u00a0 For the first time in weeks New York did not have one of the highest totals in COVID-19 deaths in the country.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rather than high hundreds or even more than a thousand deaths only 41 New Yorkers perished from the COVID-19 virus.<\/p>\n

And this had a profound effect on the total deaths for the country.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The 750 nationwide deaths was the least since March 29th.\u00a0 And just like that we can see that New York was sort of the COVID-19 epidemic all by itself.\u00a0 And if you realize that the numbers for New Jersey and Connecticut are essentially just the suburbs for New York City it becomes even more apparent that the rest of the country just isn’t in the same category of emergency as New York City is.<\/p>\n

So what has happened to slow the onslaught of the disease?\u00a0 Well, apparently New York has finally killed off all their vulnerable elderly.\u00a0 And the horrible part about that is the fact that it was mandated by the state.\u00a0 As spelled out on the attached document<\/a> whenever a nursing home patient was sent to a hospital with COVID-19 disease the nursing home was required to re-admit that patient as soon as the hospital had stabilized the patient.\u00a0 Which of course means that nursing homes would have to accept infected patients back into their population along with their uninfected patients.\u00a0 Knowing that patients over eighty are the most vulnerable to this disease the state basically played Russian roulette with all the nursing home patients.\u00a0 And over time an enormous number of them died because of it.<\/p>\n

When this fact was brought to the attention of Governor Cuomo he was unaware of it but his Health Commissioner confirmed it to him at a news conference.\u00a0 Too bad he didn’t pay more attention to his actual epidemic strategy and less time worrying about his brother Fredo play acting victim on a part time basis in his basement.\u00a0 If instead of locking down the working age population and destroying the economy he had quarantined the healthy nursing home patients and treated the sick ones in hospitals he might have spared tens of thousands of lives and still had an economy to work with.\u00a0 Mario Cuomo didn’t seem to hit the IQ lottery with his two boys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
