Andrew Cuomo admits majority of new COVID-19 hospitalizations are people who stayed home

  According to this story Andrew Cuomo admitted earlier today that the majority of people who have lately been hospitalized with COVID-19 are actually people who stayed home. Here is more:

“If you notice, 18% of the people came from nursing homes, less than 1% came from jail or prison, 2% came from the homeless population, 2% from other congregate facilities, but 66% of the people were at home, which is shocking to us,” the governor told reporters.

“This is a surprise. Overwhelmingly, the people were at home,” he added. “We thought maybe they were taking public transportation, and we’ve taken special precautions on public transportation, but actually no, because these people were literally at home.”

  Which means that New York usurped people’s rights, stole their freedom, and cost untold thousands their livelihood for nothing. All it did was to delay what turned out to be inevitable and prolonged the crisis. But that is what happens when you have a government full of authoritarian reactionaries, this was never about controlling the virus but rather it was about controlling the people.
