Andrew Cuomo's corona presentation, Friday 4-24-2020


Virus was already in USA via flights from Italy to NY, 16,000 involving 10,000 people, when Trump instituted China travel ban.

(Trump had an altercation with an Asian American reporter concerning this.  The reporter was correct, the virus was already here.)

"Back door open when front door closed."

Why NY is most affected.

We are on the downward curve, but how fast will it fall and how quickly.  (Projections)

*Projections if we go back to reopen tomorrow.

There will be a drastic upturn and it will be worse this time and the peak will be higher on the 2nd wave.

Repartee to McConnell who suggested states go bankrupt.

NY has put in more into the Federal pot than it takes out Every Year.

"Just give me back my money, Mr McC."

KY (Kentucky, McC's state) on other hand, has taken out more than it puts in.

Cuomo then gave data for NY as high on list of Givers

and KY as high on list of Takers.

He then told uplifting story of farmer with a dying wife who had 5 masks and sent one to NY.

Ended with NY Tough, Smart, Unified, Loving.

I think it's an Excellent presentation and worth listening to in detail and transcribing, wh I will do for myself in a bit.

If you wish, you do it too.
