“How can you tell us how to do things in Georgia when the blood is on your hands for the number of older people who died in those long-term care facilities, where you didn’t have the proper protocol, where you were forced to take patients? Who “He had the coronavirus, Jones told” Fox & Friends First “.

“He should be the last to tell us how to do something in Georgia. I think you need to stay in New York and try to repair the virus that is happening on the streets of New York, where people are burning, looting, hurting and attacking the cops, “said Jones.
Jones went on to say, “[Cuomo] you need to stay home. “
Although the pandemic has slowed down at the Empire State Building, Cuomo’s visit received a backlash due to past problems related to the outbreak.
Cuomo is acting like a conquering hero. New York leads the nation in cases and deaths. He refused to act early and was unable to contain the coronavirus. His policies contributed to more nursing home deaths, “said Steve McLaughlin, executive of northern Rensselaer County.
The New York Post reported: “New York was hardest hit by the COVID-19 outbreak in early spring, and more than 25,000 residents have died from the killer bug, more than any other state. And Cuomo has been widely criticized for his early edict that may have led to more than 6,000 nursing home deaths. “
