Ahh ok.  I read it as him saying it is more than poor conduct.

 I wouldn't say it is "dishonest" since NY the State, from the beginning, posted publicly how they counted.  The reporting omitted the truthful disclosure, so I would call the reporting dishonest/dispicable.


"This data does not reflect COVID-19 confirmed or COVID-19 presumed positive deaths that occurred outside of the facility."

 
 I think this is part of the problem, calling the people who tell the truth liars because somebody else lied.  It's like calling all white guys racist because one white guy is racist.  What is "dishonest" and specifically the word dishonest about what I posted above in bold?  Specifically what I posted above and not some other topic.

 The process was transparent, that's why people have been complaining this whole time because they can see the process, but the PR surrounding it has been moderately duplicitous.  

 I think the bigger problem is ignoring that the truth was always disclosed so we can further vilify the person(s) who made bad choices.  Just let their bad choices, and their public statements speak for themselves, instead of trying to over-inflate it by claiming the counting method was also dishonest when it in fact was always publicly disclosed.

"OK. We will publicly disclose how we are going to come up with misleading statistics, so that when those misleading statistics are publicly disseminated we - the authors of those statistics - are blameless, and the folks who disseminate our misleading statistics are actually the ones at fault."

 You are comparing the procedure with the manipulation of reported data (statistics).  It is disclosed in black and white that the data pool does not include people pronounced dead at another location.  How is that misleading?

 You want to call it misleading so you can further vilify Coumo by grouping more with him.  You are right, he's deserves to be held accountable, but only for what he did, we don't need to add in other things.  It's like me reading a post that Serow made about all your posts and never bothering to go look at what you actually said, and then calling you a liar.

 Part of the problem in this case is not knowing, or even bothering to consider what the alternative is.

 In this case the alternative is that the Nursing Home would report the C-19 death instead of the medical center or clinic where the person died.  So the nursing home needs to track the patient off-grounds or rely on the medical center to pass on a report that then is relayed into the State count by people who did not process any of the final paperwork or treatment.  This can easily result in double-counting, so a more reliable resolution is to have the facility that processes the body, make the report.

 I would say the method used by NY is actually more accurate from a count total perspective - but since people won't read - they will say its "misleading" because they don't like Coumo.  

 The nursing home counts were already disputed before any of this hit the news because people who will read already knew that the claims were misleading because they used the actual documentation to compare to.  That documentation was the one that said what was really happening, not what Coumo said was happening.  Now we want to say the documentation used to prove Coumo was being duplicitous is also duplicitous?

"More than 15,000 seniors died in adult-care facilities, but the governor was clearly more worried about a DOJ investigation and political finger-pointing.""


 So should every senior that has ever been in an adult care facility be counted as a nursing home death, or as stated above, ones that died "in" an adult care facility?


 It is ridiculous that they want to blame the Trump Administration for anything they did that wasn't a direct order from the Trump Administration.  I understand why the medically stable order was issued, but I do not understand why alternative resources were not used, and withholding information should be criminal.
