Few may have noticed that 42 percent of all COVID deaths in the US come from just three states—New Jersey, New York, and Massachusetts. These three states account for nearly 56,000 of the nearly 133,000 deaths in the US, even though they represent just 10 percent of the population. If these three states are excluded, the US suddenly finds itself somewhere in between nations such as Luxembourg (176/1M) and Macedonia (166/1M), where some of the better fatality numbers in Europe are found.
This week, the New York State Department of Health issued a report that concluded 6,326 COVID-positive residents were admitted to nursing homes between March 25 and May 8 as a result of the order.
”The data shows that the nursing home residents got COVID from the staff, and presumably, also from those who visited them. Unfortunately, we did not understand the disease early on, we did not realize how widespread it was within our community, and therefore, it was able to be introduced into a vulnerable population,” said New York Health Commissioner Dr. Howard Zucker.

Look at that quote by Zucker again:
“Unfortunately, we did not understand the disease early on, we did not realize how widespread it was within our community, and therefore, it was able to be introduced into a vulnerable population,”
I have a whole post, March 16th, which shows that we did in fact know how ‘widespread’ it was. “We” apparently didn’t include the ‘expert’ Zucker, however.

We also understood who was most vulnerable… well, everyone except the ‘experts’ in NY apparently. Before the March 16th post above, I raised concern about the elderly and how they needed our special attention in this post

And probably others, too. But note the dates. The NY policy was in effect “March 25 and May 8.” My posts beat those dates by several weeks.
I don’t think I’m particularly clever for noticing how COVID uniquely devastates older communities. Many were doing so. I think our authorities and ‘experts’ were particularly stupid, and in some cases, apparently, actually wicked, for seemingly doing everything possible to NOT specially protect these communities, at the expense of justifying total, community/state/national shut downs of EVERYONE.
I hate these people. I really do.

Deaths per million:
New Jersey: 1,728.7
New York: 1,660
Massachusetts: 1,189
If these states were countries, they would hold the top three positions in COVID death rates worldwide. And by a significant margin.
