Grandma Killer: Andrew Cuomo Murdered 5300 Elderly New Yorkers But He's a Hero Because He's a Liberal Psychopath

A friend asks: Why aren't we calling this the Cuomovirus?

As you probably know, Andrew Cuomo ordered elderly persons infected with coronavirus back into their nursing homes, where they could -- and did -- infect all the other nursing home residents and kill thousands of them.

He did this deliberately. Why?

It's hard to think of a reason why -- these people could have been isolated in the thousands of unused temporary hospital berths built to... well, to keep coronavirus patients isolated.

Instead he ordered them back into nursing homes, to infect other people of a very high risk of dying from the disease.

And die they did.

By the thousands.

All the while, as thousands were dying, the press just could not pour enough praise on Andrew Cuomo.

He killed them.

If people have "blood on their hands" for permitting businesses to reopen -- how can it be that Andrew Cuomo is not the murderer of 5300 extremely at-risk people by ordering the infected to be crowded together with them?

Andrew Cuomo and New York State realize they have a huge scandal brewing -- if the media ever feels like reporting easily-discovered facts.

It looks like New York State is taking pains to correct its error.

And by correct its error, I mean -- fudge the numbers to hide the numbers killed.

A Daily Caller exclusive. Although I guess we shouldn't praise the Daily Caller too much for this disclosure -- no other media company was willing to publish the truth.

The New York State Department of Health acknowledged that its recent reporting does not fully reflect the known carnage coronavirus has caused among nursing home and adult care residents.
The revelation comes as New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is under fire for his policies regarding nursing homes amid the coronavirus pandemic.
New York is the only state with large coronavirus outbreaks among its long-term care facilities that doesn’t count residents who died at a hospital.
New York quietly changed the way it reports long-term care fatalities around April 28.

New York has omitted an unknown number of coronavirus deaths in recent reports regarding residents of nursing home and adult care facilities, the New York State Department of Health acknowledged in a statement to the Daily Caller News Foundation.
In early May, those reports quietly began omitting long-term care residents who died of coronavirus in hospitals. Even so, New York still leads the nation with 5,433 reported deaths at nursing homes and adult care facilities as of Wednesday.

The revelation comes as New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo faces criticism for ordering nursing homes and other long-term care facilities to accept patients from hospitals who had tested positive for coronavirus. Cuomo rescinded the March 25 order, which experts say led to higher levels of death among nursing home residents, on May 11 to allow such facilities to wait until a coronavirus patient tests negative before readmitting them.

He rescinded the order... on May 11th. After ordering the infected to be packed into nursing homes with the uninfected but severely at risk for six weeks.

Six weeks.

5300 dead -- according to New York's undercount of the victims.

What's the real number?

Hey, get Karenpundit on it -- he likes doubting the official numbers and projecting higher death tolls. I'm sure he'll be willing to do the same if it means hurting a Democrat politician instead of Trump, right?

He must have a few spare beakers and reagents lying around. And I know he's got the white Lab Smock. He can Science us up some numbers, I'm sure.

Cuomo knew a shitstorm was coming -- so he secretly installed a provision into a law forbidding people from suing nursing homes.

So all of these people with dead parents now find they are barred from state law from suing.

And don't think Cuomo did this to protect the nursing homes -- no, he did it to protect himself.

Because what defense do you think the nursing homes will offer if they are sued?

That's right: We cannot be found liable, we were following the decree of the New York Governor who ORDERED us to do the insanely dangerous thing of keeping infected people right next to the uninfected by highly at risk. SUE THE STATE, the real author of this tragedy.

They would have pled that, and they would have been right.

And that would look bad for Andrew Nippleclamps Cuomo.

So: Lawsuits are now officially banned for those whose parents and granparents he murdered. Go fuck yourselves and die, and have a nice day.

Oh, and Vote Blue, No Matter Who!

In the chaotic days of late March, as it became clear that New York was facing a catastrophic outbreak of the coronavirus, aides to Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo quietly inserted a provision on Page 347 of New York’s final, voluminous budget bill.
Many lawmakers were unaware of the language when they approved the budget a few days later. But it provided unusual legal protections for an influential industry that has been devastated by the crisis: nursing home operators.
The measure, lobbied for by industry representatives, shielded nursing homes from many lawsuits over their failure to protect residents from death or sickness caused by the coronavirus.
Now, weeks later, more than 5,300 residents of nursing homes in New York are believed to have died from the outbreak, and their relatives are finding that because of the provision, they may not be able to pursue legal action against the homes’ operators over allegations of neglect.

News Coverage Alert: I have it on good authority that Chris Wallace will not be covering this story this Sunday, or next Sunday, or any Sunday, really. So set your DVRs to miss that.

124 Just remember, Cuomo's mother did just fine. He protected her.
Your mother? Not so much.
But keep voting Democrat like its a team sport.

People were outraged and Cuomo was working on his image. But he lied about the entire affair to the press, and then rescinded the order. The media was all too willing to help him memory hole that destructive action, as well.

But yeah, Cuomo for President. His slogan can be, "Meh, You're Old, So You're Expendable"

83 Puddleglum, your co-workers are idiots (when it comes to things outside their specialty) - but you knew that. If they can listen to either MSDNC or NPR without guffawing or screaming, they're pretty ignorant or unthinking people. Tragically, they're fairly typical.

TX is doing fine. Like everywhere else, curves are following the classic, normal, and *inexorable* epidemic path. In most-, and least-lockdowned states, or countries.

Which makes perfect sense. Standard epidemiological common sense is that you can't contain a highly contagious disease once it is dispersed (assuming the vector's not a single manipulable thing, like enteric diseases passed via water supplies, etc). CDC's own guidelines I believe say 1% prevalence = virtually no value to generic lockdowns or radical mitigation.

Worse, current unchallenged doctrine is that general the enormous and difficult to measure costs of lockdowns probably exceed the benefits, for a disease that's out of the barn already.

Yet - what have we just witnessed? Still witnessing?

Thus my ability to find new levels of disgust and despair at the dumbing-down of America and degradation of its institutions, collapse of anything approaching scientific literacy, etc.

84 A doctor I know, ( an allergist, FWIW) opined to me that she believes that " everybody" will get the ' Rona, and unfortunately, some people will die. She believes that a vaccine won't be that effective because it's essentially a cold/ Sars type virus that won't sit still for dying out. FWIW, ans she, by the by, is pretty tight lipped about this opinion because of the medical circles she is in.

87 All of these executive orders and extreme acts by these governors and mayors are based on laws regarding emergencies.

But this was... and is... not an emergency, by any sane definition. So they had no legal authority.

94 Ace, if you believe the Marxist cant that the only reason to run a business is to screw over your client, then forcing a nursing home to take in a client that would otherwise be foisted on the state is justice. And doesn't affect the state emergency budget that is supposed to go towards constituent services.

Posted by: Kindltot at May 15, 2020 04:38 PM (bMMCK)

95 Cuomo knew a shitstorm was coming -- so he secretly installed a provision into a law forbidding people from suing nursing homes.

So all of these people with dead parents now find they are barred from state law from suing.

177 Having struggled to get proper treatment for my FIL from assisted living staff it's hard enough to help the aged living in these places maintain a decent quality of life.

Top that struggle off with a campaign of mass murder directed against them and it's enough to make anyone incandescent with righteous anger. Cuomo, Murphy and Wolf all had these policies in place and, together, they executed tens of thousands of people. No crimes, no trials, just sentenced them to death.

Lady YD's aunt is a Stage III cancer patient, and very vulnerable to all of the things.

We've been wearing masks and gloves around her since well before The Virus! and that hasn't changed.

The reason for this is that her eldest son has been adamant that she be isolated from germs in every way... even to an extent I personally think is extreme.

The last thing M would even consider is the idea of putting his mom in a communal facility with lots of diseases running around in the air ducts and so on. He wants her in her own home where he can control who comes in and out, and make them clean themselves up.

That's how real people act when germs are a concern. Not Karen, and apparently not Kuomo.

While I would not be surprised if Democrat-led states came up with a coordinated plan, in partnership with the DNC for a unified alternative to Trump policies (to assist with the next impeachment), this policy is totally in line with Obama's own, and now Berni'es healthcare expert Zeke Emanuel. Denying care to seniors to free up resources for younger citizens is SOP in socialized care.

European countries have been doing the same thing: not trying to save seniors in order to free up resources for younger people with the Wuhan flu.

They were both out by December, thank God, or they probably would have ended up dead.

I sort of doubt it. Other than that it was absolutely his own chosen action.

What I feel like I've been observing though is one governor after another (including my own) and people at the national level as well, not even *bothering* to examine the consequences of their edicts. I haven't noticed even the slightest concern about implementation or secondary effects of *anything*.

I don't think that making cancer biopsies and other important and necessary medical care illegal was *on purpose*. I think it was carelessness. Not bothering to ask what is medically classified as "elective".

Note also, I believe that *carelessness* is even worse.

Our "rulers" are so used to everyone simply working around the idiocies of government that they don't bother to wonder what would happen if cops really arrested everyone who broke the law or businesses really followed all the regulations or what businesses and cops would do if the situation changes so they haven't yet figured out what to work around, how, or who to ignore.

I can think of three reasons:

2) What if those people can't care for you (incapable)?
3) What if those people don't exist?

I think #2 and #3 can be justified. If you have nowhere else to go (childless widow, for example) or if your family cannot care for you (too complex, unaffordable, etc.). #1 probably happens a lot more than we want to acknowledge.

375 In all seriousness about elder care, most here have never been around advanced dementia, and you're lucky you haven't. You can't have someone in your home with advanced dementia. Just for one example, I know of one woman who tried to take care of her mother, until she started walking into the kitchen and turning on the gas stove burners all the way and then walking away. Did this at all times of day and night. Worse yet are those who have become completely incontinent, and need to have their adult diapers changed every couple of hours. Physically, that is extremely demanding, and beyond the capabilities of friends and family. That's why nursing homes exist.

Don't worry. Lots of us breeders will end up ditched by our ungrateful spawn as well. I mean that as a cold fact not snark.

I don't think the OP meant there shouldn't be any, and I think that proper care of many cases can become impossibly difficult. We have friends trying to care for parents who have become mentally unstable and abusive in the extreme. It's hell.

And then there's Alzheimer and so on. People who need round the clock attention. Families have to choose between a lot of bad choices when it comes to caring for aging loved ones.

But I think there are also plenty who stick mom somewhere long before she really needs it because they can't be bothered.

388 336: Not everyone with family (kids) wants them to take care of them. Neither of my grandmothers moved in with a kid, and one died at 79, the other just short of her 102nd birthday. They both lived alone. They accepted having their groceries delivered, but that was about it. The younger one maintained her gardening skills and raised fruit and vegetables along with her roses and other flowers (often side by side). My older grandmother was disabled by bad RA, but managed without modern medicine.

This is how I want to go. Independent. The one who died at 79, had cancer, knew it was hopeless, and that interventions would leave her weak and incapable while giving her a few extra months..she refused treatments.

My grandmother sort of split the difference between "living with her children" and a nursing home. She moved in with us for several years before the altitude where we lived up in the mountains became to hard on her. Then she moved in with one of her daughters for another year or so.

Then one day, she called a family conference with all her local kids. That's when she announced that she was getting near the end and she knew it and that she did not want to be a burden and that she had checked herself into hospice care and that one of them could give her a ride or she could call a taxi, but the decision was final.

424 Diogenes that is also my thought and I know Spokane as well having lived there 12 winters. A nice cold spell and some booze ain't a bad way to go.

Use to think hospice at home for me but I would prefer to spare the family, not dying in the living room but in a hospital bed. Eternity awaits, don't care about the earthly space.

I had an older friend of the family who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. They wanted to give her treatments which at best might prolong her life for maybe a year, all at the low-low price of $150-200,000. She told them to pound sand. I hope I have the guts to do that when it's my turn.

Then one day, she called a family conference with all her local kids. That's when she announced that she was getting near the end and she knew it and that she did not want to be a burden and that she had checked herself into hospice care and that one of them could give her a ride or she could call a taxi, but the decision was final.

449 " Worse yet are those who have become completely incontinent, and need
to have their adult diapers changed every couple of hours."

catheter made all the difference ... someone has to be with them all the time, mostly.

I toured one of the good homes, walked through with my Mom early on ... different in every case I guess, but patients will be left staring at the walls for long periods, or maybe sitting in a room with others but no direct attention. Some nruses and aide try to give some individual attention, but there are not enough of them.

It can be a tough thing, I did it for eight years at home, all went pretty well, CNAs 3x a week helped. Internet saved the day for me ... living room became the nursing home room ... so what? But not everyone can do that.

I love that movie. My grandmothers were the least depressed old ladies you were likely to meet. The one who refused treatment...we found this out after she died in her own bed. She spent some time shortly before labeling a few items for grandchildren. If she felt remorse over her decision, she did not express it.

458 Cuomo has done exactly the same as the government agents that gave blankets to Indian tribes from the hospitals treating small pox victims.

The only thing that is going to change anything is when a jury refuses to find guilty the child of a nursing home victim that shoots Cuomo in the guts with a shotgun on live TV.

462 These places are where the majority of the deaths are, by far. NY is not the only state playing shell games with the reporting. Things are not as bad in FL but they're hiding more of it, percentage-wise.

I warned you all this was going to wreck those places months ago, now.

They were not, and are not, going to keep it out of nursing homes because the nursing home workers keep bringing it in. Most of these people aren't paid very well and it's a really lousy part of the healthcare industry to work in, particularly when you get in the really out of the way places.

What they can do, though, is actually use treatments that have shown good track records. There are places with more than half the residents coming down with it and having zero or single-digit fatalities. Some states, by which I mean states run by Dems or establishment GOP weasels, are interfering with treatments and procedures and doing dumb shit to try and boost fatalities for political purposes.

The high dollar treatment stuff works; the cheap anti-malarial stuff also works, but some places - like NYC - are running rigged studies deliberately using it in a stupid manner so they can say "oh hey look it doesn't work".

464 I am engaged in wild speculation here, but I believe that the Cuomo/ Zucker decision had very little to do with freeing up hospital beds, ICU beds, and ventilators. I think that it had to do with Medicare's limit on paying for hospital stays beyond 60 days and making sure that Medicaid was available to pay for their recovery through its long term care program. The state wanted to make sure that it and the hospitals were not on the hook for keeping these elderly patients in hospital beyond that 60 day limit.
