    Cuomo says it's 'shocking' most new virus hospitalizations are people staying home

    Cuomo says it's 'shocking' most new coronavirus hospitalizations are people who had been staying home

    - Early look at data from 100 New York hospitals shows that 66% of new admissions related to the virus are people who were at home, Cuomo said.


    Most new Covid-19 hospitalizations in New York state are from people who were staying home and not venturing much outside, a "shocking" finding, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Wednesday.

    The preliminary data was from 100 New York hospitals involving about 1,000 patients, Cuomo said at his daily briefing.

    It shows that 66% of new admissions were from people who had largely been sheltering at home. The next highest source of admissions was from nursing homes, 18%.

    "If you notice, 18% of the people came from nursing homes, less than 1% came from jail or prison, 2% came from the homeless population, 2% from other congregate facilities, but 66% of the people were at home, which is shocking to us," Cuomo said.

    "This is a surprise: Overwhelmingly, the people were at home," he added. "We thought maybe they were taking public transportation, and we've taken special precautions on public transportation, but actually no, because these people were literally at home."

    Cuomo said nearly 84% of the hospitalized cases were people who were not commuting to work through car services, personal cars, public transit or walking. He said a majority of those people were either retired or unemployed. Overall, some 73% of the admissions were people over age 51.

    He said the information shows that those who are hospitalized are predominantly from the downstate area in or around New York City, are not working or traveling and are not essential employees. He also said a majority of the cases in New York City are minorities, with nearly half being African American or Hispanic.

    While data shows the coronavirus is on the decline in New York, the new survey results appear to clash with Cuomo's prior assurances that isolation can reliably prevent transmission...

    Both the mayor of NYC and Cuomo are imbeciles.

    Either they're being paid A LOT to do what they're doing or they're very stupid..

    They have murdered people with ventilators and intentionally exposed nursing home residents to the Wuhan virus. I don't think any of this was unintentional.

    With all of the "Stay Home, Save Lives" memes posted all over social media and all of the "Christians" (Including preachers) saying, "obey the government," it makes me wonder how people can continue to be so willfully ignorant when news reports of this nature appear.

    Based on the following data, I'd have to say that New York state has done
    a pretty good job of containing the disease.

    You might argue that they were too slow to lock things down. Given
    the crowded conditions, the widespread use of mass transit, and the
    fact that the city is the main point of entry for travelers from all over
    the world, it was probably inevitable that it would be the epicenter
    of the disease here.
