Didn’t Cuomo get a huge ship outfitted for him to use?

He did but remember they were not allowed to send Covid positive people there for most of the time it was there. That ship was not equipped for dealing with infections diseases, it was meant for all of the normal everyday injuries, car wrecks heart attacks, things like that.

They could have outfitted that ship for that if Cuomo wanted to. It would be for just COVID positive patients. Same with the Javitz center. Keep COVID patients separated. It was his call. He was in charge, and he said that everyday at his daily press conferences.
No, he could not. It was an active duty navy hospital ship.

The only person in charge of that ship was Trump as he was the president at the time.

Good grief. He gave what Cuomo said he needed. It’s up to Cuomo to determine how to use it.
Wrong answer. Correct answer is I want this to be a COVID patient only ship. Whatever it takes and stat.No, he could not. It was an active duty navy hospital ship.

The bottom line is Cuomo moved covid positive patients into nursing homes despite having the ship and the Javits center available for covid patients. This resulted covid exposure to the most vulnerable members of the NYC population and hundreds, if not thousands of unnecessary deaths.
Navy hospital ship sent to NYC for outbreak no longer needed, says Cuomo
A Navy hospital ship deployed to New York City to help fight the coronavirus outbreak is no longer needed, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Tuesday, expressing confidence that stresses on the hospital system are easing.

We could debate this until the cows come home. Reality is, none of us know the prodedures required to do this. Perhaps somebody with military knowledge can chime in.
And yet all of that gets utterly ignored when placing blame for not controlling an uncontrollable pandemic on the governor of Florida.
The Captain of the ship said at the time that it would take a 6-9 month retrofit to convert the ship's beds to ICU COVID beds, and that was just for the oxygen supply lines alone. He said converting the ship into a covid ward wasn't economically or logistically feasible, and by the time the retrofit was completed the ship would likely no longer be needed.

Yea like in new York they found thousands of ventilators still in the crates....in a warehouse.....and blamed trump.
It looks like Cuomo did ask for and get the ship to receive COVID patients. So apparently the ship could take COVID patients.
But a few points to make : He did have the presence of mind to use the ship for Covid patients.
But he didn’t isolate them adequately enough from the nursing homes, as is true with the other Governors. It was also early in the Pandemic and mistakes were made by everyone due to the unknown.
DeSantis however had the wherewithal EARLY ON to protect healthy seniors from the COVID patients in the nursing homes.

The human variables are the same in all states, yet some states seem to do better than others in managing the virus.
Analysis: Donald Trump sends a very clear message to Ron DeSantis: Stay out of 2024!
Donald Trump may be waiting to announce his (seemingly inevitable) run for his old office in 2024 but he's already sending a warning shot at a potential rival for the nomination.

It may seem that way, right now. But 6 months ago it was a very different story with those same states. 6 months before that, another set of states were doing great.
