The U.S. Department of Justice is investigating former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's administration for its handling of nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically focusing on a March 25, 2020, directive that required nursing homes to accept recovering COVID-19 patients, which critics argue led to increased deaths among vulnerable populations. The investigation, which began in 2021, is examining potential civil rights violations and the accuracy of the state's reported nursing home death toll, which was later revised to show a higher number of deaths than initially reported. This probe adds to the legal scrutiny faced by Cuomo, who resigned in August 2021 amid sexual harassment allegations, and comes amidst ongoing criticism and multiple lawsuits related to the state's nursing home policies during the early stages of the pandemic.
