Hospitals No Longer Required to Report COVID-19 Data

Last Updated: May 8, 2024

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has announced that effective May 1, 2024, hospitals will no longer be required to report COVID-19 hospital admissions, hospital capacity or hospital occupancy data through the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). Given the value of these data for patient safety and public health, CDC strongly encourages ongoing, voluntary reporting of the data through NHSN.

This information does not apply to Long-term Care Facilities, Dialysis Facilities, or Healthcare Personnel (HCP) COVID-19 Vaccination reporting.

    Oh good. That’s only about two years past due.

    I hope that does not mean that vaccine side effects, of which there are many, do not need to be reported. Many hospital admissions are the result of "long vax". I practiced Alternative Medicine one day per week along with my Radiation Oncology practice. I used extreme dose IV Vit C and never had a severely ill patient who failed to recover from a viral illness.  I have not had a vax since 1981, when I had am anaphylactic reaction to a flu shot.  Despite working in hospitals for 40+ years I was almost never sick. I was asked to review medical records of several patients who had, what we now call, "turbo cancer" following a Covid vax.  The tumor doubling times were "off the chart".   The government's mandates regarding Covid inpatient care were an abomination.  Thankfully, I am retired, as I would have been ostracized for treating patients with IV Vit C and ivermectin.  My own Doc refused to see me or my wife as we both refused any vaccinations of any kind. Funny how natural immunity works.
