COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

what I don't understand is why certain states are getting nitpicked to death (in most cases rightfully so) while Cuomo is getting a pass for this

this literally might be the worst single policy decision of any state and yet it has been pretty much ignored while everyone pats Cuomo on the back

To be clear, I'm not ignoring it, and I don't think most people are. With the benefit of hindsight, it was a terrible decision, and I don't know what the rationale was for doing it that way. But I don't think that 1 decision should define Cuomo. I don't necessarily agree with a lot of his politics, but most of his policy decisions have been pretty sound.

I still think whoever was behind that decision has to be questioned though. That cost a lot of lives.
