Cuomo feared COVID ‘fire’ in nursing homes before notorious order: Kushner
By Steven Nelson and Bernadette Hogan
August 2, 2022
Then-New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said COVID-19 could burn through nursing homes “like fire through dry grass” 10 days before he issued an infamous March 2020 executive order that required nursing homes to take COVID-19-positive patients, former President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner reveals in an upcoming memoir.
Relatives of nursing home residents who died following Cuomo’s order told The Post the disclosure heightens their outrage and underscores the need for accountability.
Kushner wrote that Cuomo specifically mentioned possible nursing home horrors in a 30-minute phone call as Kushner helped lead the early White House pandemic response as infections mounted in New York.
In the March 15 call, Cuomo allegedly told Kushner, “For nursing homes, this could be like fire through dry grass.”
Cuomo’s subsequent March 25 order said nursing homes weren’t allowed to turn away patients “solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19,” which the families of victims said was a death sentence to vulnerable elderly residents.

So, when will he be indicted?

You didn't have to be an epidemiologist to accurately predict the results of that policy.
This was done with malice aforethought, and that makes it murder 1.
