Your hard on for Cuomo, and no other governors who followed the same cdc guidelines, is telling!!!Cuomo didn't use it. Doesn't matter what type of patient it was originally there for.READ the article you posted above in full....The ship was for NON COVID patients, NOT for covid patients.... we found out early on in the pandemic that ships, are not safe, and are super spreaders.... the agreement with the federal gvt, was it would not be used for covid, but for non covid patients....making more room for Covid patients in the hospital.....The returning from the hospital covid residence were put in separate covid isolation wards from the nursing home wards of residents without covid, was the directive to nursing homes in New York.
Yet even with the added nursing home resident deaths added from those who died in the hospital,
NY nursing home covid deaths is a much lower percentage of covid deaths in their state, 33%, than the average nursing home deaths in all the other states, which is running around 40%?
How could what NY did, have fewer as a percentage... lower death rate than other states who allegedly didn't do, what NY State did in nursing homes??
NY is not lower, but about right in the middle, with 50.5 deaths per 1000 in nursing homes.

COVID-19 death rate in nursing homes by state U.S. 2020 | Statista
As of September 27, 2020, there were around 125 COVID-19 deaths per 1,000 residents in nursing homes in Massachusetts.www.statista.com
So while that does not sound too bad, you have to remember that NYC was given access to the USN hospital ship, which they never bothered to use.
But what happened was people stopped calling ambulances or going in to hospitals for their sickness and ailments because they were AFRAID of catching COVID19, so many died at home....![]()
Totally wrong.
A hospital ship does NOT at all spread any disease at all,
And the USNS Comfort was entirely and ONLY for covid patients.
182 covid patients did use it in total, but that is almost no use at all.
Cuomo just did not want to use it for some reason, and told it to leave.
It arrived as a ship for non covid patients.... after it was there they figured out a way to separate covid neg patients from positive patients with a separate ward wing and using no staff or doctors that crossed over or intermingled with non covid staff.... only a c
handful or 2 of covid patients...
Cuomo fucked up. Just admit it. Everyone else has except Benito himself.
You are really looking stupid for trying to defend this loser.
Where is DeSantis sending his hospitalized nursing home residents when they no longer need acute hospital care? Or where is Texas or Alabama or Kentucky or NJ or Massachusetts or any state, sending their released hospitalized recovering covid nursing home residents?
