Thank you. She could start with explaining the botch that NY's Cuomo has made in the case of nursing home deaths. In a just society he'd be put on trial and punished for causing these deaths:

Andrew Cuomos appalling nursing-home defense

By Post Editorial Board January 29, 2021

€śIts not about pointing fingers or blame. This became a political football,€ť Gov. Cuomo said Friday in response to questions about Attorney General Tish James finding that the state vastly underreported COVID-19 deaths of nursing-home residents. €śWho cares,€ť he asked, if they died in a home or a hospital? €śThey died.€ť

What a callous reaction to the deaths of thousands of senior citizens, which James found may have occurred because of Cuomos March 25 mandate forcing homes to take in COVID-positive patients.

And if it doesnt matter where they died, why did Cuomo and his Health Department work so hard to obscure the number, stonewalling lawmakers demands and Freedom of Information filings for months?

They certainly knew what it was, since Health Commissioner Howard Zucker finally released it the evening James report dropped: He said 12,743 nursing-home residents died or were presumed to have died from COVID-19 as of Jan. 19 €” validating James estimate of 13,000.

But earlier in the day, the DOH Web site had that figure at 8,740. Can anyone truly trust Zuckers new numbers, or is there some other deception?

Cuomos insane edict €” which he rescinded in May €” sent virus-positive patients into the states most vulnerable population, as Cuomo himself noted in saying the virus would spread in nursing homes like €śfire through dry grass.€ť Thats why families, and so many others, care how many nursing-home residents died.

As for the govs supposed aversion to pointing fingers, he did it himself in the same press conference: €śIf you think there was a mistake, then go talk to the federal government,€ť he said, again pretending the feds made him issue that March order. €śWhere this starts is frankly a political attack from the prior federal administration€ť and its Health and Human Services spokesman, Michael Caputo.

Even now that his coverup has been uncovered, Cuomo still cant apologize. He claimed Friday that everyone in his administration did everything they could to prevent deaths. But what he said earlier in the week was closer to the mark. €śIncompetent government kills people,€ť he declared in an interview. €śMore people died than needed to die in COVID. Thats the truth.€ť

It certainly is..."
