Hospitals can’t discharge coronavirus patients to nursing homes: Gov. Cuomo

Patients in New York hospitals must now test negative for the coronavirus before they can be discharged to nursing homes, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Sunday — partially reversing a policy that forced sickened seniors into facilities housing those most vulnerable.

“We’re just not going to send a person who is positive to a nursing home after a hospital visit,” said Cuomo during an Albany press briefing. “Period.”

The ruling partially overrides a controversial March 25 order that nursing homes cannot deny admission or readmission on the basis of a positive or suspected COVID-19 case.

That policy has been roundly criticized as counterintuitive for forcing coronavirus carriers into nursing homes, even as Cuomo has repeatedly acknowledged that seniors are among those most susceptible to the virus.

So all that does is turn the hospital into a nursing home when they need to take care of other patients

No need to be sorry, i don't disagree but these observations come from the luxury of hindsight

Seems like the .gov should have had a plan for this, they didn't and subsequently and stupidly treated BFE America like Manhattan.
But it became evident a while ago that we were on the wrong path. A leader with the ability to admit they initially erred on the side of caution but are reevaluating would have been refreshing. Anyone know where we can find one of those?
 
Nearly one-third of Americans believe a coronavirus vaccine exists and is being withheld, survey finds

This would be the same 1/3 of our population that voted for Trump.

We really need to retool our entire public school education program.


You mean vaccines that are available and being withheld, like these?

Question doesn't specify the vaccine is being withheld for non-transparent or nefarious reasons.

Anyone who cites a poll that is just a vague one liner question is out for their own agenda, or an idiot.

What an idiotic policy..... skilled nursing facilities are already lower than capacity than they can hold..... move healthy patients to an all healthy facility while turning a skilled nursing facility into a huge covid unit. I found out the other day that people can test positive for 30 days after testing positive the first time and quarantining for 14 days.

Cuomo is such an F...ing idiot. He's not Deblasio but he's such a big government hack who is incompetent.

Coronavirus vaccines have been around for a long time. The veterinary world has had them for ages. This corona virus mutated to where it can infect humans cells. This idea that coming up with a Corona vaccine is complicated is nonsense. All the ground work is laid.

This is about money and power.

Tony Blair: ‘Our Teams Are Embedded in Governments Around the World’

The globalist think tank run by Tony Blair has claimed that it is “embedded in governments around the world”, supposedly advising them on the Chinese coronavirus crisis — despite the former prime minister’s connections to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime.

The Tony Blair Institue said that it has “teams” advising world governments “to keep their people safe during this pandemic — not just in respect of Covid-19 itself but also the political and economic collateral damage.”

The think tank has advised governments to adopt “dramatically increased technological surveillance”, arguing that it is “a price worth paying”.
