“Who are the groups who are terribly under-vaccination? The youthful and the doubtful,” said Cuomo, addressing reporters at a media briefing Monday.
“And there is an attitude that they’ll be fine, why should they take the vaccine? Maybe you will get a long-haul syndrome that we’re not really sure what it is yet, but a lingering consequence of COVID,” he continued.
“Or maybe you go home and kiss your grandmother and wind up killing your grandmother!” he added.
