New York officials are keeping a close eye on already-stressed hospitals as the number of cases is projected to rise for perhaps three more weeks.

Cuomo said Wednesday that as many as 140,000 hospital beds may be needed in a state with 53,000. The state has more than 30,000 confirmed cases and 285 deaths. The nation-high figures are driven mostly by New York City.

I think Governor Cuomo should be called out for approving the closure of hospitals in the NY are over the last 8 years . Now he’s playing the hero when he in fact is partly to blame for the shortage of beds and intensive care units.

See if the media picks this up .
