Governor Andrew Cuomo responded to a question about his scandalous decision to force nursing homes to take in coronavirus patients by waxing poetic about the nature of life and death. WATCH: From RedState: Q. What do you say to families inside of nursing homes and they are looking for accountability? They would like to see justice. For example, I just interviewed a family of three siblings. They’ve had two nursing home losses within a few weeks of one another on two separate floors of the same facility here in Albany. They felt so much solace when you got up and talked about Matilda’s Law. They said, “great, we’re protected,” our loved ones are going to be okay because of Matilda’s Law. And then their loved ones passed away because they couldn’t get the testing. So they are looking for accountability and they feel that they were failed. What’s the comment to that?What is criminal negligence? What is criminal culpability? Can politicians be held responsible for their criminally negligent actions or are we in a post-justice world where politicos can never be held responsible for anything? We knew at least back in February the elderly were the most vulnerable to this virus, yet Cuomo and other Democratic governors ordered nursing homes to take in CV patients in March and only reversed their decisions after the media started reporting on all the deaths that were piling up. There was nothing "inevitable" about old folks in nursing homes getting this virus -- politicians like Cuomo and Rachel Levine literally sent it to them (of course, Levine's mother was taken out of harm's way before the orders came down).
Nursing homes in Pennsylvania account for "nearly 70 percent of the coronavirus-related deaths statewide," CBS Pittsburgh reported earlier this month. At least a third of the 15,000+ deaths in New York were in nursing homes, though we don't know the exact numbers now because they quietly stopped reporting the real numbers after this scandal broke.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis fortified nursing homes right off the bat and hasn't seen anywhere near the deaths that Democratic states which did the opposite have. There's nothing metaphysical about this. This is unquestionably the biggest scandal of the entire corona-crisis and the Democratic governors and their political lackeys who gave these orders need to be held accountable.
