Adrienne Adams attacks Cuomo via Covid and quotes the death of the father

Adrienne Adams said goodbye to her father in a parking lot in the hospital on Long Island.

Two months later he died of Covid-19.

This was the subject of a deeply emotional speech that the spokesman and candidate for mayor on Thursday, and five years ago told her father Irvin Eadie from Covid.

She used the experience to attack the leadership of the former governor Andrew Cuomo during the crisis.

“My father served his government with pride, but when he needed his government to serve him. It failed,” she said.

Adams reported that a room in the Elmhurst Hospital, once of patients and death during pandemic, in which nurses were worn in the nurses, how their father was not cared for in this hospital – that was 10 minutes from his house at that time. All because of these conditions.

She claimed that state cuts had contributed to leading them over the years. The Cuomo team denied this.

Instead, her father landed in a hospital on Long Island.

“I looked down on the face that looked so much for me and saw a fear in him that I had never seen before,” she said in tears. “His eyes said: 'Please don't leave me.'”

Adams used her personal story to arrive Cuomos Stewardship during Covid-19.

Adams argued that her community had been released while vaccines flowed into the suburbs.

“I remember that he has embedded, then governor Cuomo, who begged his office, to send life -saving vaccines to my community, and for weeks and months our request was rejected, no matter what we said,” she said.

She turned out to deal with the crisis with Cuomo's handling and quoted this speech in a church in Queens last month.

“They met us with covid, life and death, we come together as a community and we do what they said it was impossible and we save lives,” said Cuomo last month in the church.

Adams replied on Thursday: “It stayed with me because my father lost his life.”

Cuomo did not react directly to the criticism.

His spokesman sent statements from his followers, including the leaders of churches in Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan, and said that the former governor was standing with the black community in this difficult time.

Adams says Cuomo only stands with them if it is politically functional.

“These are the politicians who have to vote when they have to vote, but have never lived here who talk about our struggle but have never suffered with us who see our political value, but never our pain,” she said.
