“Does the #DemConvention know @NYGovCuomo forced nursing homes across NY to take in COVID positive patients and planted the seeds of infection that killed thousands of grandmothers and grandfathers?”

PolitiFact rated this: Mostly False

PolitiFact says: The policy likely had an effect, but epidemiologists identified additional contributing factors. Also, the policy did not "force" nursing homes to accept COVID-positive patients. Nursing homes interpreted it that way.
