What Did NY Cause When Transferring COVID Patients From Hospitals to SNFs?
Read these three articles, to get a full picture of what happened. First, the AP story: AP: Over 9,000 virus patients sent into NY nursing homes. Next, the CNN story: New York governor's top aide apologizes and says administration 'froze' after inquiries on Covid-19 deaths at long-term care facilities. Finally, Politico's story: Top Republicans call for Cuomo's ouster following nursing home revelation.
This follows the release a few weeks ago of a report by the NY AG that indicated the state had failed to accurately count deaths. The NY AG report is available here.

Natives of NY have been highly critical since the early onset of Covid-19. They knew that accurate information was being suppressed. Like so much that has occurred, lives have been destroyed and lost due to "political" rather than healthcare concerns.
