This country is run by fools.
This will spread no matter what they do..Just at a slower rate
Lock yourself down first.
And Nebraska has some wide open spaces, and large rural areas; many small towns which have zero cases. Yes there are some.cities such as Lincoln and Omaha. How many cases in those places? It seemz too much to me, to order nationwide lockdowns if we have hot spots which are the areas needing attention.
Take all your New York transplants in Florida back as well.
Amen, but not Trump. At the market this weekend I noticed a host of vehicles from NY and NJ here in North Florida. Not used to seeing so many at any time of the year.
Rudy was great mayor.
Those politicians are why NYS has lost almost HALF its House seats over the last 6 decades.
Note to the nation: Never take advice from professional pols from a depopulating state.
He still has not declared one in the place he actually has jurisdiction in. He is the worst NYC mayor ever. Worse than Dinkins, worse than Beame.
Apparently, Bill de Blasio forgot that he ran for President and lost badly.
>>I literally want to see hundreds of ventilators<<
You could have had them if your governor wasn’t an idiot...
>>After learning that the state’s stockpile of medical equipment had 16,000 fewer ventilators than New Yorkers would need in a severe pandemic, Gov. Andrew Cuomo came to a fork in the road in 2015. He could have chosen to buy more ventilators. Instead, he asked his health commissioner, Howard Zucker to assemble a task force and draft rules for rationing the ventilators they already had.
That task force came up with rules that will be imposed when ventilators run short. Patients assigned a red code will have the highest access, and other patients will be assigned green, yellow or blue (the worst) depending on a “triage officer’s” decision. In truth, a death officer. Let’s not sugarcoat it. It won’t be up to your own doctor.
Cuomo could have purchased the additional 16,000 needed ventilators for $36,000 apiece or a total of $576 million in 2015. It’s a lot of money but less than the $750 million he threw away on a boondoggle “Buffalo Billion” solar panel factory. When it comes to state budget priorities, spending half a percent of the budget on ventilators is a no brainer.<<
G.K. Chesterton saw this awhile back....see my tag line....
“We are ruled...by liars who refuse them news, and by fools who cannot govern.” G.K. Chesterton
Cuomo is on tv now blaming everyone but himself.
Protect every single life! Every life is precious (except aborted babies)! Does not matter if we’re all poor as church mice due to the ruined economy, do as I say! I will be fine because I am crony numero uno!
He is mayor of a city. He is not governor.
oops, I thought we were talking about fredo’s brother
You're no Giuliani.
Where has $850m gone? Bill de Blasio’s wife can’t account for staggering amount of taxpayer money that the NY Mayor gave her for mental health project
He really should just go phuque himself.
Warren, worry about your own back yard.
