Former DOJ official: Gov. Cuomo should be worried about federal probe into COVID-19 nursing home deaths
Fox News
John Daukas, who served as acting U.S. attorney general for the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, explained on Monday why he believes New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo should be worried about a federal probe into the his alleged undercounting of nursing home deaths amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
"New York by the summer had by far the highest death rate in the country, over 32,000 deaths, twice the deaths of any other state," he continued. "But the governor was going around saying the nursing home deaths were very low and that didn't seem right to us at the Department of Justice so we asked for information on state-run nursing homes, which my group, the civil rights division, has jurisdiction over and New York provided data to us that showed that they had understated the deaths in those nursing homes by one-third," Daukas added. Cuomo has found himself at the center of a federal investigation into whether his administration sought to hide the true toll of the pandemic.
