Recently New York State Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo’s (D) office faced allegations of manipulating and concealing data on deaths of nursing Home residents infected with the Chinese Communist virus (COVID-19). The Cuomo administration is accused of allowing patients infected with the virus to move into nursing homes, leading to a spike in nursing home deaths, but the deaths were excluded from Cuomo’s statistics. Phone calls between Cuomo’s top aides and New York State Democrats confirm that the Cuomo administration withheld the death toll to protect its reputation.
According to a March 1 disclosure by Breitbart News, the Democratic governors of four states – New Jersey, Pennsylvania, California and Michigan – approved a policy similar to New York Governor Cuomo’s in the Communist virus outbreak, fearing that too many patients would overwhelm hospitals. A similar policy has been approved for nursing homes as a second battleground for admitting patients with the CCA virus.
New Jersey
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has approved a directive from the state health secretary that no patient can be denied admission or readmission to a nursing home “based solely on a confirmed diagnosis of the CCP virus. As long as a doctor determines that a patient is “medically stable,” a nursing home cannot require a patient’s coronavirus test as a prerequisite for admission to a nursing home.
In a letter to the State of New Jersey last October, the federal prosecutor’s office and the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said they were investigating New Jersey veterans’ nursing homes under the Institutional Civil Rights Act.
In the letter, U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito and Eric S. Dreiband, assistant attorney general for the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, said, “Our investigation will focus on whether the veterans’ nursing homes violated the rights of veteran residents under the U.S. Constitution or federal statutes, particularly during the Communist virus pandemic, and whether they provided appropriate medical care.”
According to the state Department of Health, as of Wednesday, March 3 of this year, more than 32,000 elderly residents and 21,000 staff members in 1,270 long-term care facilities across New Jersey had cumulatively been diagnosed with the infection since the outbreak of the CCP virus in March of last year. There were 7,825 elderly residents and 143 staff members who died of illness, for a combined total of 7,968 deaths.
Many Family members attribute the large number of elderly deaths to the New Jersey government’s failure to follow CDC guidelines and return those who tested positive to nursing homes early in the outbreak, as did New York State, which led to more infections.
Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf (R) also enacted a mandatory nursing home admission policy last March, saying, “Nursing facilities, also known as nursing homes, must continue to accept not only new residents who move in, but also patients who have moved out of nursing homes but are stable.”
Biden nominated Rachel Levine, a transgender Pennsylvania health official who worked under Wolf, to be assistant secretary of the federal Department of Health on Jan. 19 of this year. While serving as Pennsylvania’s health secretary, Levine drew criticism and accusations for allowing “stable” patients with the Chinese Communist virus to return to nursing homes.
When the virus quickly spread through nursing homes, Levine took her mother out of the home and put her in a hotel suite.
Michigan
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) had issued an order that long-term care facilities, also known as nursing homes, “may not prohibit residents from being admitted or readmitted under the pretext of testing requirements or results for the CCP virus.” The policy was rescinded in July 2020, and was extended three times before it was rescinded.
Charlie LeDuff, a veteran journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner, recently announced via Twitter that he and the Mackinac Center, a Michigan-based free-market think tank, are “preparing to sue” Whitmer for refusing to release information to the public. LeDuff said he and the Mackinac Center, a free-market think tank based in Michigan, are “prepared to sue” Whitmer for refusing to release COVID-19 (Chinese Communist virus) death data and nursing home outbreak data to the public. And LeDuff said he would take Whitmer all the way to the Supreme Court.
California
California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) issued a similar order on April 10, 2020, “Patients living in hospitals, or being treated in alternative care settings, who have clinical evidence of the CCP virus may be discharged and moved to a skilled nursing facility, also known as a nursing home.”
With New York Governor Cuomo currently facing an investigation into the cover-up of the CCP virus death toll and recent allegations of sexual harassment by several of Cuomo’s former employees, the New York State Republican Party, as well as many members of the Democratic Party, are calling for Cuomo’s ouster.
