Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

Democrats have a couple of new slogans:

1. Facts first
2. Science first.


They're nothing more than slogans.

You know what I want?

1. Results first.


Thus far there have been none of those. Put the pom-poms down.

... seven days in office. It is going to take years to unscrew the mess that the ex-President left the country in.

Facts first/ science first is the way gov't is suppose to function.

Not "someone told me" or "I have a feeling" as in the ex President.

As a US citizen you should be excited about all of the new initiatives and waving the pom poms with enthusiasm for President Biden's success.

You mean like Biden telling you that he's gonna create all these green new jobs and believing him after Obama promised the same thing and fell flat on his ass? You sure are gullible.

The voters will return to my side. They always do. Why? Because the liberal utopia that was promised is always out of reach.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

... beginning today and being broadcast every second day, the White House held its first COVID-19 update from the scientists who are managing the program free from any restrictions placed upon it by President Biden.

... so many reporters tried to attend the event, they crashed the live feed.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

The truth is starting to come out now:




New York State Attorney General and fellow Democrat Letitia James has accused Cuomo and his administration of undercounting coronavirus-related deaths at nursing homes by as much as 50%.



New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is a disaster, but his incompetence may stretch beyond the level he has already shown. According to a 76-page report cited in the New York Times on Thursday, New York State Attorney General and fellow Democrat Letitia James has accused Cuomo and his administration of undercounting coronavirus-related deaths at nursing homes by as much as 50%.


Again, 50%.


In addition, the investigation has found that some New York nursing homes failed to comply with infection control protocols, and therefore, per Axios, caused the following:

• Facilities with lower staffing ratings had higher COVID-19 fatality rates.
• Insufficient PPE and testing for nursing home staff put residents and staff at increased risk.
• Owners of for-profit nursing homes had a financial incentive to increase their own profits instead of investing in more staff, PPE and other safety measures.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

Democrats are rotten to the core:



NY undercounted nursing home coronavirus deaths by as much as 50%, state AG says

James' report said that government guidance may have put residents at increased risk





New York Attorney General Letitia James said that the state Department of Health underreported COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes by as much as 50%, according to a report released Thursday.
The report holds New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's feet to the fire for his handling of the coronavirus pandemic in the early months of 2020, after he directed nursing homes in the Empire State to accept patients who had or were suspected of having COVID-19. The decision created an onslaught of COVID-19 cases that infected thousands of elderly patients and resulted in hundreds of deaths among the state's most vulnerable population.



The state Department of Health reported that as of Jan. 27, 2021 there were 5,957 confirmed deaths due to the coronavirus in nursing homes and an additional 2,783 presumed deaths. In assisted care facilities, there were 160 deaths and 52 presumed deaths.
Cuomo has defended the nursing home policy as in-line with guidance from the Trump administration at the time. The governor was silent Thursday following the new AG report and did not respond to Fox News' immediate request for comment.
James' report said that government guidance requiring the admission of COVID-19 patients into nursing homes may have put residents at increased risk of harm in some facilities and may have obscured the data available to assess that risk.
The Office of the Attorney General (OAG) asked 62 nursing homes to provide data about deaths in their facilities.

Nursing homes that had low U.S. Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services Staffing ratings were found to have higher COVID-19 fatality rates.
In addition, lack of sufficient personal protective equipment for staff, as well as low availability of testing, could have also increased the patients' risk of contracting the virus, the report said.
About 70% of the nearly 35,000 COVID deaths in New York were people aged 70 and older, according to state data as of Jan. 28.
Investigations into more than 20 nursing homes whose reported conduct during the first wave of the pandemic presented particular concern are still ongoing, James added.


"As the pandemic and our investigations continue, it is imperative that we understand why the residents of nursing homes in New York unnecessarily suffered at such an alarming rate," James said in a statement. "While we cannot bring back the individuals we lost to this crisis, this report seeks to offer transparency that the public deserves and to spur increased action to protect our most vulnerable residents."

Biden Revokes Trump Abortion Policy, Takes Steps To Shore Up Affordable Care Act

President Biden signed two executive actions Thursday that are designed to expand access to reproductive health care and health insurance through the Affordable Care Act and Medicaid.

"There's nothing new that we're doing here other than restoring the Affordable Care Act and restoring Medicaid to the way it was before [Donald] Trump became president. Because by fiat, he changed — made [it] more inaccessible, more expensive and more difficult for people to qualify for either of those two plans," Biden said in a brief Oval Office signing ceremony.

"I'm not initiating any new law, any new aspect of the law," Biden stated. "This is going back to what the situation was prior to Trump's executive order."

An executive order Biden signed instructs the Department of Health and Human Services to open a special enrollment period for the Affordable Care Act through HealthCare.gov, the federally run health insurance marketplace. The enrollment period will run Feb. 15 to May 15, giving Americans who have lost their employer-based health insurance due to the pandemic an opportunity to sign up for coverage

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus


medicaid is state run.

the ACA was a joke... most providers won't even take ACA patients

snifferjoe just gave planned parenthood millions and millions to commit MURDER.

I hope the website is better written than Obama's website was

"like your doctor .. you keep your doctor" " you will pay $2500 less for coverage "

one reason it failed is because younger folks didn't sign up for it.

john roberts lied when he said it wasn't a tax,, then a few years later admitted it WAS a tax.

Not a big surprise that President Biden would restore the ACA back to where it was when Obama left office. Joe Biden was a key player in developing the ACA and it is now safely installed in US society.

President Biden has so much work to do in his first 100 days that he does not need to get bogged down in rewriting healthcare legislation.

In 2020, despite all of the Republican efforts to repeal Obamacare, 8.3M citizens enrolled in this plan.

I remember one of the big issues against Obamacare was the mandatory enrollments. I do not know if this is part of President Biden's plan. It sounds like it.

Wow 8million out of 330million plus.
Now all the illegals will suck our depleted system even more.. and with another 15,000 knocking on our southern border (which sniffer is opening back up) there will be even more on the government teat, more strain on the system. China holds the majority of our debt now.
