In the city that was first to touch the sky.
NYC is very badly managed under the tyranny of the the corrupt, failed Democrats. It is a failure. It’s one thing on auto pilot, it’s another when the city is challenged. And this is a serious challenge. The low ICU bed count is a result of poor planning and wasted public funds on nonsensical PC projects.
New York is the highest tax state, the worst governance.

Nurse at NYC hospital where workers were forced to wear trash bags dies of coronavirus
Metro, March 26, 2020:
A nurse working at a New York City hospital where workers were forced to wear ‘protective’ trash bags due to depleted supplies has died of the coronavirus. Mount Sinai West nursing manager Kious Jordan Kelly, 48, died Tuesday night after contracting the Covid-19, the official name of the new strain of coronavirus, on March 17, He reportedly had ‘severe asthma’ but was otherwise healthy, according to family members.
Assistant Nursing Manager at Mount Sinai West Hospital in New York City Kelly Kious, 48, died amid claims that the hospital is out of protective gear, including gowns as nurses were pictured wearing trash bags. (Picture: Facebook) Kelly’s death comes after shocking photos were shared on social media that shows three nurses at Mount Sinai West wearing large, black trash bags that had been repurposed into makeshift protective gear amid claims that the hospital is out of gowns.
NO MORE GOWNS IN THE WHOLE HOSPITAL,’ the caption on the post reads, which also shows one of the nurses holding an open box of Hefty ‘Strong’ 33-gallon garbage bags. ‘NO MORE MASKS AND REUSING THE DISPOSABLE ONES… NURSES FIGURING IT OUT DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS,’ the post continues.
On Wednesday, workers at Mt Sinai West blamed Kelly’s death on the lack of critical supplies at the hospital, which has been overrun with coronavirus cases like many medical centers across the state. ‘Kious didn’t deserve this. The hospital should be held responsible. The hospital killed him,’ one nurse told The New York Post.
Another worker said the hospital had ‘issues with supplies for about a year now,’ and even got ‘to the point where we had to hide our own supplies and go to other units looking for stuff because even the supply room would have nothing most of the times.’
‘But when we started getting Covid patients it became critical,’ the worker continued. Nurses at the hospital said they have been forced to use the same PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) while the treat infected and non-infected patients, so they began wearing trash bags to slow the spread of the outbreak within the hospital

Just think of how great this would be with a single payer forcing the cost curve down! People would have to die quickly. Treatment not an option.

Nicely staged photo-op,…. According to Gov. Coumo’s DAILY news briefings, there are ZERO shortages right now for PPE gear.
I’ll bet more outrageous photos will start to appear, Media, DNC and Hollywood loving this !!

They move down to red states and vote for the same kinds of crappy libtard tyrants they voted for in New York and New Jersey; candidates that are way too far left to have passed muster for the Democrats in the area. I have always had a strong dislike for the Democratic Party with good reason. Most of the Democrats down here were fairly conservative 50 years ago. A very high percentage of the Democrat voter base is very ignorant, and proud of it. They don’t research their votes. Democrats tend to vote the party line.

Hard to believe. Worked in medicine my whole working life, including many flu epidemics, and we never ran out because the gowns used were washed and sanitized daily and worn again the next day. And looking at this picture, they have gowns on under the trash bags. Spray them with Lysol.

At least that shows some effort to clean that shi.. hole of a city up.
