POST ANALYSIS: Cuomo's refusal to provide hospital death data meant that nursing home-linked COVID fatalities in NYC were under counted by 50-plus percent, an examination of new state data reveals -- nypost.com/2021/02/15/cuo…
- Nearly all of the 162 city nursing homes that reported COVID-19 deaths inside their walls — 152 — had residents die after being sent to hospitals for treatment.
- Hospital data caused COVID death toll at one facility to jump 1000%

nypost.com/2021/02/15/cuo…
That home — Park Terrace Care Center in Corona, reported only three residents were actually killed by the virus at the facility.

"But another 31 residents died at hospitals, pushing the true death toll there to 34 — a staggering, 1,033 percent increase."

"The city nursing home with the single largest number of residents who died in hospitals is Manhattan’s Upper East Side Rehabilitation and Nursing Center which has 52, nearly twice the 29 who died at the facility." -- nypost.com/2021/02/15/cuo…

Hizzoner is up on NY1 for his weekly appearance.
"This was a horrible horrible crime. Thank god the NYPD caught the assailant."
"He did not have contact with mental health service providers," "We don't see any indication of mental health issues having manifested in way that led him to those services," Hizzoner adds.

We put these questions to DHS this afternoon and were told to beat it.

"There is a toxic political environment and everything gets politicized," says Andrew Cuomo, about @bern_hogan's reporting, deriding it without disputing a single thing.
@bern_hogan What Cuomo is saying about the DOJ request is not what Melissa DeRosa is caught on tape saying about the DOJ request.
@bern_hogan "The New York State DOH has always fully and completely reported" nursing home deaths, claims Cuomo, which is decidedly not the case.

"I respect the question, but"
aberrant reality!
Lehrer's question: You accepted the DOI report but the special response group -- accused of repeatedly roughing up protestors sans cause -- keeps responding to protestors. Why?

Blas: it was an "aberrant reality"

Mayor de Blasio's daily press conference is underway. Starting with Trump, repeating what he said on Morning Joe.

"He will no longer profit from his relationship with New York City. We will no longer allow it.
Mayor de Blasio also confirms our reporting/Star-Ledger's reporting from last night that the Yankees will offer Yankee Stadium as a jab center.
De Blasio again pressing state/feds/manufacturers for more COVID vaccine doses.

So far: City has gotten 794,000 doses, administered 268k doses.
