Cuomo, Shifting His Policy on Outbreak, Opens Up Public Rift With de Blasio
By THOMAS KAPLAN and JENNIFER STEINHAUER
On Thursday, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo offered soothing words to worried New
Yorkers about the city’s first Ebola case. Less than 19 hours later, Mr.
Cuomo struck a starkly different tone.
"Within the city, an unexpected policy shift by Mr. Cuomo on Friday appeared to open up a public divide between the governor and the administration of Mr. de Blasio, a fellow Democrat. The city’s health commissioner, Dr. Mary T. Bassett, was not informed in advance of the Cuomo-Christie mandatory quarantine order and was “furious,” a senior city official who spoke to her said. "
