Federal judge dismisses lawsuit against Cuomo over underreported COVID-19 nursing home deaths.

A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit against former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo regarding his administration's handling of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes. The lawsuit, filed by families in early 2022, claimed Cuomo's administration underreported fatalities. This followed a report by Attorney General Letitia James, which indicated a significant undercount. Critics linked Cuomo’s directives to increased nursing home deaths, while he defended his actions as federally-guided.
