Unfortunately you seem to have misread what I wrote.
1) NY has the highest cases per capita and death rate per capita in the country. [1] [2] This is what I mean by burned through their population. Serology estimates about 20% of NYC population was infected. [3]
2) NY’s policy blunder in shipping COVID positive patients into nursing homes is well documented. [4]
#2 did not lead to #1, nor did I claim it did.
Their “herculean efforts” to contain COVID notwithstanding, NY is in the process of phased reopening, just like pretty much everyone else.
