Strange that this is one way to ensure this Covid thing really got off the ground, shove as much virus as you can at the weakest and most vulnerable. They think we have forgotten. But we will never forget.

"NY Governor Andrew Cuomo, known as a micromanager, denied frantic requests by nursing home officials to send COVID patients to the nearly empty, 1,000 bed Jacob Javits Center, instead of to nursing homes.
AP via ABC News:
“…critics have suggested nursing homes were already overwhelmed and a better solution might have been sending them to the virtually empty Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, which was retrofitted to treat COVID-19 patients, or an even less utilized Navy hospital ship that has since left Manhattan.
As the virus was racing through his nursing home, the head of Brooklyn’s Cobble Hill Health Center frantically emailed state health officials April 9 asking just that.
“Is there a way for us to send our suspected covid cases to the Javitz center or the ship?” Donny Tuchman wrote.
Tuchman said he was denied permission.”
And in an April, the NY Post reported in “New York refused to send nursing home’s COVID-19 patients to nearly empty USNS Comfort”:
“Cobble Hill Health Center CEO Donny Tuchman sent a desperate email to state Health Department officials on April 9, asking if there was “a way for us to send our suspected covid patients” to the hospital built inside the Javits Convention Center or the US Naval hospital ship Comfort — the under-utilized federal medical facilities on Manhattan’s West Side.
“We don’t have the ability to cohort right now based on staffing and we really want to protect our other patients,” Tuchman wrote in a chain of the emails reviewed by The Post.
He was denied.”
The requests were denied at a critical early moment in the Spring pandemic. Immediately afterwards, exponential increases in deaths were observed and reported across the nation. One third to half of COVID deaths have been nursing home residents or residents of other special care facilities."
On the same day as the nursing home order was issued, New York City bought 45 refrigerated trucks in anticipation of a surge of deaths, according to Bloomberg News. These were to become the backdrop of the famous images of death in NYC two weeks later, which shocked the nation into submitting to unprecedented economic devastation and curtailment of individual liberties.
