Majority of NY voters fail Cuomo on reporting of COVID nursing home deaths: survey
Fox News
A majority of New Yorkers disapprove of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s handling of reporting nursing home deaths amid continuing controversy over an alleged cover-up by his administration -- although overall approval of his handling of the pandemic remains high.
Cuomo has been under fire for his handling of nursing homes in the early days of the pandemic -- specifically a March 25 order that required nursing homes to take in COVID patients. But the controversy exploded last week after it emerged that a top Cuomo aide told Democrats that the administration "froze" amid an investigation from the Justice Department. "Because then we were in a position where we weren’t sure if what we were going to give to the Department of Justice, or what we give to you guys, what we start saying, was going to be used against us while we weren’t sure if there was going to be an investigation," aide Melissa DeRosa said in remarks first reported by the New York Post.More Related News
