© press Cuomo has faced massive criticism for his nursing home policies during the pandemic. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration is refusing to release the total number of nursing home coronavirus deaths until March at the earliest, a watchdog group reported. The state Health Department claimed in a letter to the Empire Center for Public Policy that it required another nine weeks and five days to comply with the legal request for a full accounting of nursing homes deaths. It claimed the reason was “because the records potentially responsive to your request are currently being reviewed for applicable exemptions, legal privileges, and responsiveness.”
