Notice all those states are what Cuomo and others label as Red States.
In particular Tennessee, there are no cases of Covid around here.
In Chattanooga and Nashville there were two clusters of new diagnosed cases early last month in the Latino communities, new arrivals to them, I believe. Don't know about Memphis and Knoxville.
I have unfortunately had to go to the ERs 5 times this past month.
Most of the beds are empty at VA in Nashville or were and in Chattanooga at other hospitals a lot of empty beds and Covid cases none.
NY's Governor, I think is playing a political game, with people, and that's not right wish such a serious or any disease
