Cuomo Ordered Aides To Conceal Nursing Home Death Numbers While He Negotiated $4M Book Deal

Late yesterday, the NYT reported that the governor was busy trawling for a $4MM deal for a book about Cuomo's "pandemic leadership lessons" while several of his aides were feeding deliberately false data to the DoJ and suppressing a Health Department report that threatened to disclose a far higher number of nursing home deaths. Unsurprisingly, Cuomo's spokespeople denied the report. But there's no denying that Cuomo published "America's Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic" in October. Cuomo was working on the book as early as mid-June.

The implication, of course, is that Cuomo did everything he could to delay publication of the higher nursing-home death toll number until he had received the advance for his book.
