zucker: i think the governor has nailed all the key points here. the hospital systems, i've spoken to several the hospital c.e.o.'s, they need to be aggressive and they recognize this. some are just more efficient at moving things forward. i think that they will push forward to get all those vaccines in place and in arms and remain optimistic about that. governor cuomo: look, your this is ut the fine, not about money. this is about saving lives. we're not really interested in collections fines. -- collecting fines. we're really interested in, for those hospitals who now have the allocation and are slow, move the allocation. move it quickly. we're serious. nd if you don't want to be fined, just don't participate in the program. it's not a mandatory program. we don't have to have all 194 hospitals. just say, i don't want to do it. that's fine. we have plenty of hospitals and i'd rather use the better performing hospitals. the situation we're in is we've already allocated to all the hospitals. and again, as i said before, it's hard to get it back. but

zucker book always says, that hate you don't want me to be the arbiter of the speech. of about 3 billion people. and no he's not the ideal arbiter, but the ideas he built this platform and he built the arbiter. he is the person who has to decide where the line is and, what i will say and, what can't be said in his platform. what is toxic and what makes people feel uncomfortable. this is absolutely old not allowed like pornography, misinformation about important things, like anti- fax information. which took facebook a long time to ban, or information about voting, which would just gird people from voting people which facebook still is not do a very good job. or things like dog whistles, like trump quite often sends out. certainly, it makes people of color uncomfortable and it makes the platform itself somewhat toxic. so, it's a tough line to draw that's what he built. he has to own up to that. that really is the issue, and the fact is, he's not doing a great job of it. because the more they and advanced speech is exposed, it just feels wrong. and he has more and more d

howard zucker also responds and talked about the memo. genesee pointed to the memo many times is something we need more information about exactly what happened. the statement says the oag report also found no evidence that doh are the health department march 25th advisory memo resulted in the additional fatalities in nursing homes. we want to get you both to comment on that. the memo is what it is. >> march 25th, therefore 46 days the governor mandated that covid positive patience be put into nursing homes and that he himself said it would be like wild fire through dry grass. he knew the risks that were associated with that. and he has blamed everybody else and everything else except the person that signs that mandate. so, there are still questions to be had and still answers to be had. maybe this is the beginning of something a little bit bigger. >> shannon: where does the accountability come in? we know that u.s. members of congress steve scalise is one of them. asked for information, as for documents, testimony. i know you're all tryin

in a written statement zucker said the department, quote, has always publicly reported the number of residence of the patient and separately reported the number of fatalities within nursing home facilities and has been clear about the nature of that reporting. the state health department appeared to acknowledge the accuracy of the report's claim by updating its covid death count for nursing home residents last night with the caveat that an audit has not been completed. the doh says 3,829 nursing home residents confirmed to have covid-19 died after being transported to a hospital, and that brings the number of suspected and confirmed nursing home deaths to 12,743. at the heart of this controversy over the incomplete nursing home death count is governor cuomo's insistence that other things like insufficient staff bringing the coronavirus into facilities contributed to the deaths of nursing home residents. and a memo issued by his health commissioner in the early days of the outbreak is not to blame. that march 24th order specifically for straff at h hospitals and nursing homes in charg
