A new study criticizes former Governor Andrew Cuomo for using heavy-handed tactics and secrecy during the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City. The report highlights coordination issues between Cuomo and then-Mayor Bill de Blasio, which hindered effective collaboration. The analysis, prepared by city agencies, states that Cuomo restricted the city's access to critical health data and often failed to communicate policy changes. This lack of transparency complicated the city's response and vaccine distribution efforts. The report also notes that Cuomo's management style created confusion and contradictions in guidance, impacting healthcare operations. Cuomo's spokesperson defended his actions, stating that a strong state presence was necessary during the crisis.
