Cuomo health department admits New York nursing home deaths topped 12,743 - 49% HIGHER than previously reported: AG puts 20 facilities under investigation
At least 12,743 long-term care residents died of the virus as of Jan. 19, far greater than the official tally of 8,505 on that day
Those numbers are a 49 percent jump cementing New York's toll as one of the highest in the nation
Those numbers are consistent with a report released just hours earlier by state Attorney General Letitia James
'While we cannot bring back the individuals we lost to this crisis, this report seeks to offer transparency that the public deserves,' James said in a statement
