Cuomo blames Trump for nursing home death undercount

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo responded to accusations that his administration undercounted nursing home deaths from COVID-19 by laying the blame on the Trump administration.

"Where this starts, is, frankly, a political attack from the prior federal administration and HHS and their great spokesman Michael Caputo, who was a protégé of Roger Stone," Cuomo said at a press conference Friday.

Cuomo was forced to address the issue after New York Attorney General Letitia James released a report Thursday, claiming that the New York Department of Health had been undercounting nursing home deaths in the state “by approximately 50 percent.”

Caputo, who was assistant secretary of public affairs for the Health and Human Services Department under President Donald Trump, criticized Cuomo in August for signing an executive order requiring nursing homes to accept residents who had been discharged from the hospital after being hospitalized for COVID-19. Critics contend the policy put nursing home residents at risk. Cuomo rescinded the order in May.

Giroir: Cuomo ‘Absolutely Wrong’ that Nursing Home Order Was Federal Guidance, ‘He Has to Own This’

Ian Hanchett 29 Jan 2021

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” former HHS Assistant Secretary Adm. Brett Giroir stated that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) order on coronavirus patients in nursing homes wasn’t following federal government guidance and Cuomo “can’t shift the blame. He has to own this one.”

Giroir said, “What Gov. Cuomo said is the nursing homes had to take back these patients. They were mandated to do that. What the CDC said is, under very specific circumstances where a nursing home had all the training, had all the PPE, had all the isolation requirements, all the staff, all the training, then it would be permissible to do so. In no way was this federal government guidance. That is just absolutely wrong and he can’t shift the blame. He has to own this one.”

So 49 of 50 states did it right, but Trump is to blame for the State of NY's deceptive counting method? :silly: How many reporters had the courage, intelligence, and honesty to laugh out loud?
