NYC Nursing Home Guidelines for Covid-19
In this tweet, Governor Cuomo is called out on his claim that much of the death and misery in the New York nursing home community was caused because the state tried to follow the CDC guidelines. This was proved to be false, and contradicted a past announcement by the State of New York that nursing homes needed to admit patients only if they were able to care for them. With the scale to which the health system in New York was stretched, many nursing homes felt that they had no choice but to accept patients.

Within that search I have chosen to add this item because it speaks on the ongoing debate between state and Federal guidelines over the health of various groups within society.
