How awful

"Coronavirus patients admitted to Queens nursing home — with body bags".
The first coronavirus patients admitted to a Queens nursing home under a controversial state mandate arrived along with some grim accessories — a supply of body bags, The Post has learned.

An executive at the facility — which was previously free of the deadly disease — said the bags were in the shipment of personal protective equipment received the same day the home was forced to begin treating two people discharged from hospitals with COVID-19.

“My colleague noticed that one of the boxes was extremely heavy. Curious as to what could possibly be making that particular box so much heavier than the rest, he opened it,” the exec told The Post Thursday.
Why would you force a nursing home to take in people with the coronavirus? I watched a little of the video at the top of the article in which Governor Cuomo attempts to defend this action, and his "reasoning" strikes me as sheer nonsense.

He obviously needed more deaths to blame on Trump and to reduce the strain on NY's health care system.
The body bags were probably not supposed to be sent at the same time. But then, NY pols are idiots as well as slimy POSes.
