WHY CAN'T BLOOMBERG PRACTICE WHAT HE PREACHES?

Today Billionaire Mayor Bloomberg donated $250 thousand dollars in matching funds to Planed Parenthood to replace the funding loss when the Susan B Kromem Cancer Foundation defunded Planned Parenthood in response to right wing attacks over women's right to control their bodies. bloomberg proclaimed POLITICS SHOULD NEVER INTERFERE WITH HEALTHCARE...nice words . Too bad the Mayor did not follow them when he remained silent over the only hospital serving the lower West Side was shut and is now being converted to luxury condos.... please read, share and take the action recommended at the end ot the post.

Wish more 1% would be mindful of their social responsibility . Nice move Mike... But come on Mike is not your silence on the closing of St Vincent's the only hospital serving over a million residents, working people and tourists on the Lower West Side a political act on healthcare? The only trauma 1 Emergency Room so important in any kind of pandemic health crisis closed feels like a very political act that served the interests of the Rudin Real Estate Corporation to build luxury condos in a space that had saved people's lives. Your silence was quite loud to me and other seniors who now have no hospital/ What we will have in three years is a high enter, profit incentive faux hospital with two , 23 hour holding beds to serve in a health crisis like a heart attack, a stroke,o. a blue baby or 9/11 scenario. Not a hospuital but a high end Urgent Care center which will shuttle critical patients to real hospitals across town, traffic willing. It sure seems quite similar to what Susan B. Kornen folks did when they stopped the program to give breast exams to poor women Denial of health services.

DID YOU GET THAT SLICK HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM MAILING?

DON'T BE FOOLED by FAKE HOSPITAL and Dishonest Emergency Room mailer sent out by the Rudin family/Long Island Jewish Hospital. THERE WILL BE NO NEW HOSPITAL. THERE WILL NOT BE AN EMERGENCY ROOM FOR CRITICAL MEDICAL EMERGENCIES. The expensive mailing that showed up in my mailbox three hours before the Bankruptcy Judge awarded the Rudin family at fire sale price the St Vincent's property  for the development of 200-300 luxury condos, is full of LIES. There is no existing WEST SIDE COALITION FOR HEALTHCARE. The mailers made it up. Do mail it back and write in big bold letter NO . I WANT A HOSPITAL AND I NEED A TRAUMA I EMERGENCY ROOM

Do they really think that Greenwich Village people can't see through this slick and expensive and dishonest marketing tool ? Ha!

SEE YOU AT THE COALITION FOR A NEW VILLAGE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY RALLY on APRIL 30.
