Brad Wenstrup on Fmr. Gov. Cuomo Testifying on Covid Nursing Home Deaths: He Has Had the Authority of Law, Others Did Not

EXCERPT:

WENSTRUP: “We have to learn from this and try and do better. But you have to take responsibility for what you did. And he says he knew nothing about this order. And you can see from the transcript the deflection on all of this. I don't know who's in charge in New York or who was in charge in New York when he was governor. Apparently no one, because he's passed this along to a lot of other people. And the very fact that you would blame the people in the nursing homes, your directive did not mention CDC or CMS guidelines one time in any way, shape or form, and yet he's saying, 'They should have used those guidelines and superseded what I put out.' He's had the authority of law. The other did not."
