Dear Friends,
It seems to me, if the story about the Governor’s office in New York, forcing nursing homes to take in covid 19 patients is true, Cuomo is guilty of first degree murder… for political gain. Very progressive indeed. The news item I am referring to is that there was supposedly, an edict from the Governor’s office forcing old people with the Kung Flu into nursing homes, despite the known fact that disease travels at super sonic velocity through a nursing care facility. How is that any different than putting a gun to someone’s head and pulling the trigger? You know what the outcome will be in both instances. The main difference then, is that shooting someone in the head results in one death, while spreading a deadly disease through a vulnerable population could kill thousands.
Why do you suppose Cuomo would intentionally spread the Wuhan Flu to as many vulnerable people as possible? What could be the upside of thousands of people dying? One possible upside to the administrative state is the fear such deaths cause. That fear can be massaged into unlimited power… you know, to “help” people. Inflated death numbers definitely plays into the fear factor… and Cuomo’s New York has the highest death toll in the US. Despite the fact Florida has more people, an older population and Miami is every bit as crowded as NYC. Yet the results in FL are exponentially better than NY? Perhaps because the governor of Florida didn’t force covid positive patients into nursing homes, instead barring them from long term care facilities, by testing everyone as they entered.
The reason Cuomo supposedly forced the most vulnerable places to take in contagious people couldn’t have been because there was no room for them. The US military under the orders of Trump had a medical ship docked in NYC harbor… that pretty much remained empty the entire time it was there. The temporary hospitals set up for covid victims went unused. Even as the Hospitals remained empty. Making it unlikely overcrowding in those facilities was the real issue. New York has plenty of respirators on hand, that are not being used, and a plethora of nurses laid off who could be of assistance as well. So a dearth of nurses and respirators couldn’t be the reason Cuomo forced old folks homes, that have zero ability to deal with such a contagious disease, to take infected people in.
Banning hydroxycloroquine in New York is another head scratcher. Especially given that the drug has a 90% success rate with severe symptoms of the Kung Flu. While he has “only” banned it in pharmacies so people trapped at home with the disease don’t have access to it, that ban has certainly had an effect on the death rate. The ban on a drug that is shown to be effective, forcing nursing care facilities to take in infectious patients, despite the fact there was plenty of room for them elsewhere, not to mention that at the beginning of the outbreak the democrats were unanimous, in telling people to mingle, would strongly indicate that Cuomo wants more people to die of this disease, and for the epidemic to continue for as long as possible… while giving the appearance he is concerned and doing something about it.
This is obviously predicated on the truthfulness of the stories about Cuomo, banning hydroxycloroquinine, forcing long term care facilities to take infected patients and that other facilities were indeed empty and nurses laid off. If they are true, it becomes hard to rectify these things without concluding Cuomo and the democrats want more people to die of Crono. A psychopath might make the calculation that old people tend to vote republican, so every old person that dies, is a democrat vote that will not be countered. Old people are a burden to the system, in social security and medicare. Since the suffering of others means nothing to a psychopath, unless they get enjoyment from it, it is no impediment to action. So, which is Cuomo, a murdering psychopath… or simpleton?
Sincerely,
John Pepin
