Cuomo admits his decision to quarantine everyone at once was 'not the best strategy'

[SAN compnerd]

Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Thursday that it was not the best strategy to quarantine all of New York at once to battle coronavirus because it not only shut down the economy but put young people in homes with older relatives and potentially exposed them to the virus.

Speaking at a press conference in Albany as the number of cases in New York rose to 37,000 and the death toll increased to 385 - a spike of 100 in a single night - Cuomo said he was not convinced he would implement the same strategy again.

Trump: We need to restart the economy soon.

Media: Orange man is going to kill us all!!!

Cuomo: We need to restart the economy soon.

Media: Such brave leadership, we can trust Cuomo.

He's a "Cuomo."



By default, he NEVER has a "good strategy."

That decision wasn't nearly as bad as the one in early March when he said go out and party.

He's still miles ahead of the clown working as mayor of NYC.

First, De Blasio encourages everyone to spread the disease so that he can gain SJW points and virtue signal, now he's overreaching the other direction. His newest threat is to permanently close churches and synagogues...strangely, mosques are left off the threat list.

Even worse, the mayor can't even admit any flaws in his own decisions. At least the governor can manage that.

I think that it is because it was De Blasio who recommended this. I might be wrong, but I don't remember Cuomo doing this.
