Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s March 25 order requiring nursing homes and other long-term care facilities to accept recovering coronavirus patients has disappeared from the New York State Department of Health’s website.
The webpage for Cuomo’s order says the document is “not found,” though it can still be seen on the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine. It took the governor roughly six weeks to reverse the order, which has been blamed for the high death rate among New York’s elderly.
The order’s disappearance, which was first reported by Fox News on Tuesday, comes as Cuomo has faced increasing levels of criticism for his handling of coronavirus. A Cuomo spokesperson told Fox News the order’s disappearance was part of a routine website update.
Revisionist history all the way down. Make a horrible decision that kills thousands of people. Then blame other people. Then delete the evidence.
Next up, we should expect Democrats to deny that the order ever existed and accuse the rest of us of making it up.
Too bad all those nursing home administrators have signed paper copies of their orders. It won't be nearly as easy to delete all of them.
