BROKEN LINKS BELOW HAVE BEEN FIXED---SORRY
For those that may not be aware of it I was born in Brooklyn and raised in the Bronx. Even though I left NYC 45 years ago there is still something in me that has an attachment for the "City That Never Sleeps".
It is for that reason that some of the things that Gov. Cuomo has and has not done under the current pandemic situation I find to be abhorrent. Yet this piece of trash is trying to blame POTUS for items that he could and should have handled.
First, in 2015 the NYS Department of Health advised that the state would be short over 15,000 ventilators in the event of an influenza pandemic. Where did Cuomo spend the money that could have gone for those items to be held in reserve? Would you like to know? Including access to the 2015 report? All you have to do is click here
The next one is very disconcerting and it involves the drug hydroxychloroquinine. It seems that Cuomo signed an executive order that any new prescriptions for this item cannot, that's right, cannot be filled by the local neighborhood pharmacies. Patients whose doctors are prescribing this can only get the item thru the NYC hospital system. Huh??? Send these folks down to the already over burdened and over taxed hospitals for something that they can get from their local pharmacy?? Unreal!!!! If ya wanna read about it just go here
Anyway, it seems like we here in Kansas are living in an area that besides science is also relying on good old fashioned common sense. Except when it comes to toilet paper and bottled water.
For those who find they need or want a cloth face mask but do not sew, Colin Hanks, Tom Hanks' son has posted a video on Instagram that shows how to do it with a handkerchief and either two hair ties or rubber bands. Simple, easy and it works. I tried it. Take a look here
