Comrade de Blasio won't release COVID-19 stats but promises transparency

As the pandemic of coronavirus spreads with New York City as America's epicenter, Mayor and Comrade Bill de Blasio [aka Warren Wilhelm, Jr.] promised New Yorkers he would lay out the truth, even the hard, cold facts of the situation.

“I think my job is to tell you the things that we’re going to confront, including some things that are difficult to hear, but to brace New Yorkers for the reality,” the commie mayor said. Interesting that he "think[s]" his job is to reveal the truth, he just isn't certain, however.

Since then, de Blasio and his administration have refused to provide basic statistics about the capabilities of the city’s health care system as it strains under the crushing weight of COVID-19 pandemic.

Some of the key statistics de Blasio refuses to share include the number of intensive care beds that city hospitals have for the sickest patients, which neighborhoods are being hit hardest in the outbreak, and how city morgues are approaching capacity.

“New Yorkers deserve full transparency from our city government at a time like this,” said Councilman Chaim Deutsch, a Brooklyn Democrat who probably voted for de Blasio because he had a "D" on the ballot but lacks a brain.

“This is a pandemic of epic proportions, and we can’t even get a basic breakdown of cases within NYC,” Deutsch said.

A state database updated in January, says New York City’s public and private hospitals have only 1,442 ICU beds. According to reports FEMA puts the number closer to 1,800 — and even those units were believed to be full on Friday.

When asked to confirm the FEMA report from last Wednesday Comrade de Blasio said, “I am not going to get into details that are ever-changing.”

His public hospitals chief, Dr. Mitchell Katz, has said that regular hospital beds can be converted into ICU beds with staff and ventilators, but appears to be under orders not to reveal how many beds have been transformed.

A mobile morgue has been rolled out at Bellevue.

City Hall only provides a borough-wide breakdown of COVID-19 cases but has resisted providing New Yorkers with a closer view by neighborhood or zip code while other places, such as Nassau County, publish detailed maps.

Oxiris Barbot told: "Look, a dead bird"

City Health Commissioner and card-carrying moron, Oxiris Barbot said a more detailed breakdown wouldn’t make sense in the city because “we have hotspots all over the place.”

The mayor’s office routinely provides other coronavirus stats that are constantly in flux, including the death toll, positive cases and hospitalization rate. Other city departments also regularly publish information about ever-changing statistics like school attendance counts and crime figures.
