Emails and congressional documents reveal former Governor Andrew Cuomo significantly edited a state report that underestimated nursing home COVID-19 deaths by over 50%, contradicting his claims.
Cuomo's involvement in a report that allegedly downplayed the impact of COVID-19 on nursing home deaths has been described as a 'cover-up' by a House committee probing the issue.
In private questioning, Cuomo denied reviewing a draft of the state health report, despite emails indicating his direct alterations to minimize the death count.
Cuomo's actions, including a directive to send COVID-19 patients to nursing homes, have been blamed for an estimated 9,000 excess deaths among residents.
