Former New York governor was accused of massively underreporting the number of Covid-related deaths in nursing homes

Cuomo has faced tough questions from both Republicans and Democrats about whether his administration’s pandemic guidance contributed to the deaths of 13,000 nursing home residents, with some accusing him of intentionally misrepresenting the number of fatalities.

Andrew Cuomo said he could not recall seeing or revising a New York State Health Department report on how the state handled the early stages of the pandemic.
