@mekkaokereke @noyes @EdSanders @beadsland Cuomo's early response was horrific. But it was the hottest hotspot in the country, which kind of amplified mistakes that were pretty universal as we learned more about the virus. Of course what some places did worked better than others - the nature of real time experimentation with a global public health emergency. African culture has dealt with emerging viral threats for millenia - traditional solutions require sacrifice westerners don't like.
