Over the weekend, New York Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul signed an executive order halting "elective" or "non-essential" surgeries in the state, claiming it was necessary to prepare for the arrival of the latest Wuhan coronavirus variant.
"We've taken extraordinary action to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and combat this pandemic. However, we continue to see warning signs of spikes this upcoming winter, and while the new Omicron variant has yet to be detected in New York State, it’s coming," Hochul released in a statement. "In preparation, I am announcing urgent steps today to expand hospital capacity and help ensure our hospital systems can tackle any challenges

Wonder if gender change is elective or essential.

To Demon-Rats, Covid was never about public health!!!
It was always about seeing how far they could control the peasant masses under their dictator-wanna-be powers. And they succeeded far beyond their wildest Castro/Stalin/Mao wet dreams!!!!!
Gov. Hochul could care less if a few (or even many) peasants have to die or suffer to keep her dictatorial powers in place. Peasants are expendable, since as the lie-berals prove with abortion, life is cheap to them (as long as it's not their lives of course).

Oh who cares anymore. I’m sure the vast majority of the sheep who populate that state are ok with it and she will win her election in a landslide.

Profound total panic and insanity is ruling the state and most of the country. Working snot simmering that probably will not happen. Variants are weaker versions of the original. Roll up your sleeves get the vaccine passport microchip and make sure your will is up to date.

A virus with a 99% survival rate has taken priority over cancer and other life threatening diseases purely for political purposes. This is the very definition of evil, malice, and gross incompetence.

My son pointed out to me that moronic is an anagram of omicron.

Too far over the top. Doctors and hospitals should ignore her. What will she do? Have the state police or national guard take over hospitals?

These people are sick. And they are spreading their illness at an alarming rate. What gives this totalitarian the authority to destroy the lives of others?

The real reason she is doing the cancellation of elective surgery is because when she imposed the vaccination mandate they lost a ton of personnel. They don't have the people to man the ORs. They got rid of essential personnel and they probably moved from NYC already. She is Ian a pickle!

She said, "However, we continue to see warning signs of spikes this upcoming winter, . . ."
This is early forewarning that unrestricted mail-in voting and drop boxes will be necessary in November.

This has got to stop! You are not able to get access to urgent medical care because you drive an SUV. Really, that’s where we are heading.

How does the Governor have this power? Since when do we need a politician’s approval for surgery? What is going on here? If a surgeon decides to keep working, will the State Police come shut them down? What would be their crime? How is she still alive? Enough!

As a possibly related issue, the Free State of Florida is having a massive surge in building single family homes.

Anyone want to guess what would happen if she, or a member of her close family, suddenly needed "elective surgery?"

Does the governor realize that “elective” surgeries are usually quite serious ones. They are called elective only because they don’t have to be done STAT but they do have to be done to relieve pain and halt the possibility of infection. This is a very serious disruption to patients’ lives and puts them at risk. But anything for show.

This is very disruptive.
Manhattan was hotly competing with Hollywood - - to be the nose job and face lift capital of the world - - and now this. It looks like the Left Coast jogs home with the titles.

Does "elective" include abortions?

If she was really "taking extraordinary " action to prevent the further spread of infection, she'd copy the actions of a certain governor from Florida!
