During Pandemic Peak, Psychiatric Patients Were Rushed Into Institutions
Plastiras would not say how many transferred patients had COVID-19 at the time, nor provide information on patients ages.

In the second week of March 2020, only 325 New Yorkers had tested positive for COVID-19 but images from abroad and the pace of infection outlined a worrying forecast. By the end of the week, New York would confirm its first casualty from a virus that has deeply strained the health-care system and claimed more than 51,000 lives statewide.
One thousand more cops underground won’t make or keep the subways safe. Nor can 2,000 or 3,000 because at its root, the cause of many random, dangerous acts in the subway is not a criminal justice problem. The victims of Jose Gonzalez, James Melbourne, Rigoberto Astwood Lopez, like many others, were harmed because our mental health system failed to treat people living with the most serious forms of mental illness before they became violent. Amending the standard for involuntary commitment, as called for by Gov. Cuomo, is one reform needed to begin to fix the system.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WHEC) The Rochester Police Department is reviewing body camera footage and conducting an internal review after a family trouble call on Friday afternoon.
Rochester Police responded around 3:30 p.m. to a home on Avenue B for a family trouble call involving a possible stolen vehicle.
While investigating, officers say they were approached by a custodial parent of a minor to inform the officer that her child was going to cause self-harm to herself and others, before she ran away from the location. The police were able to apprehend the minor without incident, but the minor became agitated when she saw her parent.
