Someone who died? What's the current % of positive tests, where to get one in the first place, you must be showing symptoms that fit certain parameters? Like ~4ish% positive? Nothing like an old fashioned 96% margin rate of error. That's even worse than this from the NYT on election day: 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 NYC prisoner released by state over coronavirus charged with robbery by Larry Celona & Jorge Fitz-Gibbon Original Article A Bronx man released from prison by Gov. Andrew Cuomo last month amid the spread of the coronavirus has been charged with beating and robbing a 62-year-old man — who was so scared of getting the ailment he refused to take the money back when cops made an arrest. Daniel Vargas, 29, was being held on $50,000 bail on robbery, grand larceny and assault charges after allegedly approaching the elderly victim on Valentine Avenue in the Bronx shortly after 8 a.m. Tuesday, according to a criminal complaint. . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Gal Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Google Helps New York Reboot Unemployment System After Crash New York state’s labor department has been working with Alphabet Inc.‘s Google to reboot its unemployment filing system after a deluge of claims spurred by the Covid-19 pandemic caused it to crash. The state has received roughly 810,000 unemployment insurance claims since March 9, of which about 600,000 have been processed, Secretary to the Governor Melissa DeRosa said at a Thursday briefing. “It’s a volume issue that we’ve never experienced,” she said. Last week alone the state received 347,573 claims, a 2,580% increase over the same period in the prior year, according to state labor department data released Thursday. The number of phone calls to the unemployment insurance filing system increased by 16,000% in peak weeks of the pandemic, and website traffic increased by 1,600%, compared to a typical week, the department said. </snip> The state labor department and Office of Information Technology Services have worked with Google using its Cloud technology to upgrade the system and improve its reliability. The reboot took place Thursday between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. It includes a new online application with fewer questions, DeRosa said. The online system closed at 7 p.m., so applications will begin being accepted again at 7:30 a.m. Friday, according to the governor’s office. </snip> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 ....yet another chapter in "Big Fredo's fine whine".......nothing is HIS fault.....our good 'ol NYS has been unprepared for YEARS........him and DiBlasio have done a fine job.......assuredly to get re-elected and probably has Fredo as his Lieutenant Governor....DOUBLE trouble...SMH........ Cuomo and Trump spar after NY governor says don’t 'pass the buck without passing the bucks' By Brooke Singman | Fox News New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and President Trump clashed Friday after Cuomo demanded the president provide the funding necessary for the state to reopen the economy amid the coronavirus ciris, warning not to "pass the buck without passing the bucks." The battle of the New Yorkers started Friday when Cuomo, during his press conference, complained about funding while discussing the president’s set of guidelines titled "Opening up America Again,” which passes the decision on when to move to each phase to governors and local officials. "The federal government has passed three bills to address this crisis. Of those three bills, the state governments have gotten precisely zero, zilch, nada in unrestricted aid," Cuomo said Friday. ”That is passing the buck without passing the bucks.” “Don’t ask the states to do this without the funding,” Cuomo added, saying that putting the onus on the states without the funding necessary to have a successful reopening is “the opposite of the buck stops here.” https://www.foxnews.com/politics/cuomo-warns-trump-not-to-pass-the-buck-without-passing-the-bucks-for-reopening-of-economy-amid-coronavirus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal favorite scam still has to be the Niagara Falls Power Plant. NYC gets to buy the power at cost, but anything they don't need is allowed to be sold to WNY at market rates. I remember once or twice that the authority - which isn't supposed to make a profit - somehow had $500 million lying around to give to the state during the prior budget crises. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
