I live in NY. I’m convinced that if I were to be run over by a bus tomorrow and succumbed to my injuries, Cuomo would somehow find a way to add me in to the COVID 19 count.
This state had serious financial problems before this thing hit.
Cuomo is a skilled politician who is playing this up as much as possible to get more federal dollars to burn.
You are probably right. Very few are dying from COVID-19.
I find this all very shocking. All of this crap is about the political GOP vs Dems deep division. Trump tries to convey that this is not so bad and that not many are dying. NY says that its way worse, but feels he needs to inflate the argument to take a shot at teh GOP. Both sides are probably twisting the truth. But people are dying from this.
GAAAWD you need to put political differences aside for a few months and focus on getting this virus contained so economies can get back to business.
In Canada we have a Liberal federal government and a very right wing conservative provincial government in Ontario and Quebec. But there has been virtually no political lines in the sand. Both sides are resolutely focused on the real enemy, the virus. The cooperation is inspiring. No doubt it is temporary. Here is an interesting article that is worth reading at least skimming. Chrystia Feeland is the deputy Prime Minister (not exaclty, but kind of the Veep of Canada, and a Liberal. Doug Ford has been called Canada's Trump.) They are as politically opposed as you can get.
