New York refused to release its own statistics, but AP found hospitals released more than 4,300 coronavirus patients to already strained nursing homes under a controversial state order.

FILE- In this April 17, 2020, file photo, a patient is wheeled into Cobble Hill Health Center by emergency medical workers in the Brooklyn borough of New York. On Thursday, April 23, 2020, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said that nursing homes in New York must immediately report how they have complied with regulations for resident care during the coronavirus, and non-compliant facilities could face hefty fines or lose their licenses.

“This isn’t rocket science,” Arbeeny said. “We knew the most vulnerable -- the elderly and compromised -- are in nursing homes and rehab centers.” Over a month later, on April 29, the Health Department clarified that homes should not take any new residents if they were unable to meet their needs, including a checklist of standards for coronavirus care and prevention.Gurwin Jewish, a 460-bed home on Long Island, seemed well-prepared for the coronavirus in early March, with movable walls to seal off hallways for the infected.

Nationally, over 35,500 people have died from coronavirus outbreaks at nursing homes and long-term care facilities, about a third of the overall death toll, according to the AP’s running tally.

This is a big problem in America. realDonaldTrump rolled back regulations on nursing home management & oversight. He allowed the owners to treat vulnerable & elderly residents like garbage while taking their money & overcharging their insurance companies with crap charges.

Ordering sick patients to be treated in facilities that house, by FAR FAR FAR FAR, the most vulnerable of the population is negligence on an egregiously criminal level and if any prosecutor in New York has a shred of a testicle, they'd prosecute all the way up to andrewcuomo

Popehat as opposed to keeping them in the hospital?

The Lombardy tragedy case apparently apparently is not helping...

Seems to me these states with democratic governors are shit holes. Sending our senior citizens to their death....allowing our senior citizens to get beat up in nursing homes. But yet morons keep voting them into power

Wow...good move Governor NYGovCuomo

ThunderB With a hospital ship sitting there waiting for patients?

This is horrible

Cover-up!

China JoeBiden ChinaLiedPeopleDied

This is insane.

Democrats failed miserably-

Covering for Cuomo?

And the libs love Cuomo for this? Why? How?

And the death rate of those?

dancingstrongmn Ordered by whom?

New York fail.

Has to be the most reckless decision by a politician in state history.

Popehat We all know hospitals are run by time traveling witches fueled by the blood of the unborn and seek death as compensation to the devil for their powers. Or maybe nobody knew what to do so they followed the guidelines

'Under a controversial state order'? It's ok, AP. You can say what we all know. Andrew Cuomo forced those infected patients into nursing homes and caused the deaths of thousands of people.

Thanks Florida

It's infuriating how piss poorly managed NY is.

It's BILLING! People are discharged from hospitals still unwell & contagious. But they've used up allotted hospital days, based on admitting diagnosis. Been that way since the 1980's. We shut down the entire country to protect our elders, and THIS happens. Failure of thought!

It’s cool. I was told by the media they like the regular schtick NYGovCuomo and ChrisCuomo put on. That’s what’s important.

Don’t worry the governor has already decided to try and blame this on Trump now. So nothing to see here

But Ron DeSantis

SliderBlaze Friggen morons

I can’t believe GovRonDeSantis is responsible for all this nursing home deaths.

NYGovCuomo killed Grandma

Popehat Cuomo from 4/23/20 news conference - “They don’t have the right to object,” Cuomo answered before the reporter finished his question. “That is the rule, and that is the regulation, and they have to comply with it.”

Popehat Maybe ChrisCuomo can ask his brother about this during their next comedy hour.

He should be charged with murder for every death that occurred because of it.

Who’s controversial order?

Cover-up CuomoKilledGrandma cuomoresign

FreethinkerInCA They’ll figure out how to blame Trump somehow

Most nursing homes double as rehab centers. The real story is courtesy of the White House - there hasn’t been enough testing available. I know a number of nursing homes on Long Island & around the country didn’t have access to ANY tests. AP, your story is misleading.

Great job! NYGovCuomo

In the case they recovered or had capabilities of manage their later part of recovery.

Killer Cuomo. He should be prosecuted.

And Trump killed them....right.

Hey NYGovCuomo RELEASE THE NUMBERS! Why you hiding them?

Must be realDonaldTrump ‘s fault...

Why did the full court liberal press do his bidding and keep a lid on it for 2 months? JackMaxey1 JasonMillerinDC WarRoomPandemic RaheemKassam WarRoomPandemic

Hey CNN ChrisCuomo you gonna talk about this? Didn’t think so

Coverup....Time for hearings and indictments

KillerCuomo

Currently Michigan Governor did the same thing ordered covid-19 patients into nursing homes something real fishy about it I don't know what it is get more Medicare money just a thought

I'm sure Chuck Todd will be accusing Cuomo of having blood on his hands soon, right? Lmao

How is no one talking about this? Cuomo has handled this worse than any other state and every other night CNN is like “come on bud let’s talk about stuff that happened at your parents house when you were 14”

Granny Killer Cuomo

CuomoKilledMorePeopleThan911

VOTE REPUBLICAN IN NOVEMBER AND STOP THIS CRAP!

KillerCuomo

Cuomo had an empty Javits Center and an empty medical ship provided by the federal govt., NY received the most aid than any State. This is ALL on Cuomo, he did this !

Cuomo ordered these nursing homes to take them.

Older people tend to be more conservative! Interesting they would send them back in to infect others. Knowingly or not, that’s what happened.

CuomoLiedGrandmaDied

Finally someone other than right wing outlets are reporting this. About fucking time.

Missing from the headline is Gov. Cuomo and Mayor De Blasio. The media is junk.

KillerCuomo

NY covid fatalities from nursing homes are not properly counted. If an ambulance has a patient from a nursing home pass away or if they are in a hospital but came from a nursing home it’s not counted. The true numbers are more than double. Investigate now!

WGRZ why don't you ever talk about this?

Has Cuomo explained WHY he thought sending sick people into confined spaces with the most vulnerable was a good idea? What was the rationale? Makes zero sense.

But the beaches in Jacksonville!

Depraved indifference

LYING BU**SHT

CuomoBodyCount CuomoKilledGrandma CuomoPrison or DeathPenalty

Cuomo is a MSM hero for using the resources that Trump gave him. New York Governor, Nyc Mayor, and the most useless Politician in the country Pos Chuck Schumer were not prepared. They only about funding for liberal bullshit and not protecting their people. nursinghomes

WHAT A FUCKING JOKE

The corporate media are the enemy of the people

tdtw seadognw 我以为mainstream media会一直装瞎下去😂

And the demwitted blame it all on Trump.. Unbelievable!!!

margbrennan Good job NYGovCuomo.

Murder

You guys seem to love that governor! He’s got no plan, no vision, spends his days on cnn with fun littlechats with his brother. New York, wake up

Cuomocaust

Sounds like Cuomo isn’t as competent as the media tells us he is.

Why is Governor Cuomo trying to cover up the nursing home deaths he caused? Maybe ChrisCuomo will ask him about this! Haha jk

NYGovCuomo needs to be investigated! Resign!

Conservatives : 'you can't blame Trump for the deaths of all these Covid19 patients, that's crazy' Also Conservatives: 'ITS ALL DEMOCRATS FAULT!'

That happened in the UK too 😔

Seeing as wealthcare trumps healthcare, hardly surprising.

Experts or people who got C's in highs school? Asking for a friend

So finally the 'news' attempts to find out like almost a month too late...for those that didn't make it. So what now? Covid has not gone away.

PILE UP the populations in the URBAN AREA to support land & rental SPECULATION, TRADE & TOURISM of mass, INTENSIVE agriculture... it's CRIMINAL =Endanger HUMAN LIFE or the personal SAFETY of OTHERS (criminal code) EVERYTHING MUST BE RETHOUGHT

It’s strange that the entire media hyped Cuomo as a presidential candidate, gave him non-stop glowing press and even started creating names for him like “America’s Governor!”. CNN has his brother interviewing him with lovable family anecdotes. What a disaster the media’s become.

I know it's all Trump's fault, but when he gives hospital bed space and Cuomo refuses to use it, instead decides to kill people, can we blame Cuomo? Or is he still off limits? At which point can we start blaming democrats? NoMoreBlueVotes

latinalatina71 Only reason to do that is to up the death toll 😢😢😢😢. I hate politics

People who still stand by Cuomo’s decisions on handling the virus in New York.

Like adding kindling to a fire!

After watching the news the past 24 hours of such little/no regard the Elderly are given...does everyone realize we are ALL going to end up being Elderly and in need of assistance some day? I’m seriously Distraught 😩😩😩

Were people actually believing that the lockdown was enforced to save the elderly?

hancocktom Good God NYGovCuomo over 4300 patients? JFC, you as good as murdered those nursing home folks. You isolated them from their families and left them to die. Absolutely disgusting and 💔💔.

Cuomo is a total disaster.

MURDER? 🤔

This is just messed up

41% of all US Covid-19 deaths are from nursing homes. Of those, the majority were taken out of hospitals and shipped to nursing homes under mandates signed by governors.

same old mistakes from the governments of the world this is a global problem requiring global solutions by global leaders which , unfortunately , there lies the big problem, the world as gone Nationalistic

so it's true, what were they thinking.

So, what does the governor of New York have to say?

NYGovCuomo is [ir]responsible for this

It’s almost as if he MEANT to get more people infected?!!! Plandemic There was an ENTIRE SHIP! dedicated for use of sick people..but schmo sends them to the nursing homes?!!

This is a rather peculiar announcement to make in the middle of the night, instead of when you have a captive audience

He's a democrat.... so it is OK if people die... they will still vote democrat from the grave anyway!

Impossible Cuomo is an America hero and treasure just ask his brother who interviews him every night while they smell each other’s farts

NYGovCuomo there is hell to pay

Why isnt the media more outraged about Cuomo putting old people to their death while he jokes around on CNN?
