\n Gov. Andrew Cuomo again justified his administration\u2019s decision to stop counting as nursing home deaths the COVID-19 fatalities of residents who succumbed after being transferred to hospitals, but finally admitted at least one mistake he made during the coronavirus crisis.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was the first state in the nation to do masks, I should\u2019ve done it earlier. I should\u2019ve done masks earlier. That would\u2019ve made a dramatic difference,\u201d Cuomo told WAMC radio.<\/p>\n

The three-term Democratic governor issued a statewide mask order on April 15 \u2014 45 days after New York had its first confirmed coronavirus case and during a period when the state was experiencing more than 600 virus-related deaths a day.<\/p>\n

Cuomo also admitted \u201cwe were wrong\u201d to say that asymptomatic carriers of COVID-19 can\u2019t spread the killer bug.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was just wrong,\u201d the governor said, adding, \u201cWe spent months saying you have to be sneezed or coughed on. That was just wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cuomo said he has now done his own research and that articles in a medical journal dating back to January and February showed there was evidence of asymptomatic spread.<\/p>\n

But, said Cuomo, \u201cthat\u2019s not really a state function, that\u2019s really a federal function\u2026with the CDC [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention].\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of these issues are not in control of the state, right. They mostly are federal cause this is a global pandemic issue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

There was a \u201cwhole litany\u201d of errors made, according to Cuomo as he explained, \u201cWe were late in finding the virus here. We were wrong when we said it was asymptomatic, we were wrong when we said you can\u2019t get re-infected. The collective \u2014 we made many mistakes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Cuomo doubled down on his Health Department\u2019s decision in early May to leave out the deaths of nursing home residents in hospitals in the official tally of nursing home deaths, which is now at least 6,400.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe question is when a person goes from a nursing home to a hospital, and the person dies in the hospital that is now called a hospital death,\u201d Cuomo said.<\/p>\n

Cuomo added, \u201cSome people say, \u2018No, that should be counted as a nursing home death\u2019 \u2014 well then you would have to reduce the hospital deaths and you are attributing a death to a nursing home when it didn\u2019t occur in a nursing home, it occurred in a hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n

The governor continued, \u201cIf I\u2019m a nursing home operator, I would say: don\u2019t say that people died in my nursing home because they didn\u2019t, they died in the hospital. And if the hospital did a better job, they wouldn\u2019t have died. So why do I get blamed for the death when it didn\u2019t happ<\/a>en in my nursing home?\u201d<\/p>\n

Cuomo said that it just \u201cdepends how you want to argue it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you died in a nursing home, it\u2019s called a nursing home death. If you died in a hospital, it\u2019s called a hospital death,\u201d said Cuomo, who claimed that the state runs the risk of \u201cdouble\u201d counting deaths if they are not tallied that way.<\/p>\n

The Cuomo administration has refused to divulge the number of how many nursing home residents were transferred to hospitals and died there, raising questions regarding the state\u2019s official tally on COVID-19-related nursing home deaths.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
