Fox News meteorologist Janice Dean condemned CNN host Chris Cuomo for making light of the coronavirus during an interview with his brother, Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

On Thursday, Dean told viewers of Tucker Carlson Tonight how [both of her husband's parents] her mother and father-in-law both died of COVID-19 while in New York nursing homes, for which Cuomo has faced criticism amid his state's high coronavirus death tolls.

“I have not seen the coverage of this. You have covered it, Martha [MacCallum] has covered it, and the New York Post is covering it. This should be one of the biggest stories of this pandemic of 2020," Dean said of New York's mismanaged nursing home policies amid the pandemic. "20% of our lost loved ones are from nursing homes. And it’s because Gov. Cuomo, and several other governors by the way in different states, forced COVID recovering patients into nursing homes."

Dean then criticized Cuomo's Wednesday evening interview with his brother, where Chris Cuomo pulled large cotton swab props he had on set to mock his brother's nostril size, calling it "inappropriate" given the circumstances,

“Make no mistake, I’m really glad that Chris Cuomo has recovered from COVID-19 because he apparently had it and I’m glad that their family is well. But my family is not well. And that’s not something to joke about," she said.
