'It did give us comfort but we don't need it anymore, so if they need to deploy that somewhere else, they should take it,' Cuomo added.

Democratic New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said his state no longer needs the Navy medical ship USNS Comfort any longer since hospitalizations in New York City have begun trending downward. The governor reportedly told President Donald Trump that the ship should be sent anywhere else where it's needed.

Cuomo says the ship is no longer needed because of declining hospitalizations due to the virus. The city's hospitalizations have reached around 1,300 a day, the lowest rate since March 25, when the city was still experiencing a rising number of cases, according toWhile the state's cases have been declining, Cuomo mentioned a"dramatic increase" of new cases in Western New York.

The USNS Comfort arrived in Manhattan's Pier 90 on Monday, March 30. It was initially intended as an overflow facility for non-coronavirus patients, to help alleviate strain on the city's hospital from the viral epidemic.

744 NYC residents died Monday from Covid19, NYS issued order for beleaguered EMS to not resuscitate cardiac calls that upon arriving have no pulse. Sounds like things getting better? Nobody knows anything.

It never worked well .. too little, too late ..

So very thankful the USNS Comfort was available. Thankful New York doesn’t need it any longer. That’s such good news.

You’re welcome.

Covefe! Covefe!

Did Cuomo have to give this up in order to get something else from Trump? This ship leaves NY on the day Cuomo meets with Trump in D.C. Of course it's just concidence, right Newsweek?
