While a requirement that hospitals report COVID deaths to the federal government is being phased out, the change does not impact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)’s data, which is collected from official death certificates, the agency said.
On Jan. 6, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) updated its guidance on COVID-19 data reporting for hospitals. The updated guidance, to take effect Feb. 2, says they no longer need to report the previous day’s COVID-19 deaths to the federal government.
Nancy Foster, the American Hospital Association (AHA)’s vice president of quality and patient safety policy, suggested the change was a way to streamline data collection. She said in an emailed statement that the AHA believes the HHS is retiring the hospital reporting of COVID deaths because it’s getting more comprehensive data from the public health agencies…
…The hospital death report data the HHS compiles isn’t used in the CDC’s daily COVID-19 death count. Instead, the CDC uses death certificate reports sent to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), a CDC page on COVID-19 death data says.
This is not a CDC-owned data source and does not impact our reporting,” the CDC said of the hospital death data in an email to VERIFY. “At this time, there are no changes to CDC data sources.”
The initial daily death counts are provisional and slowly updated over time, often 1-2 weeks behind other data. The CDC says this is because death certificates take time to fill out, states report death certificate data at different rates and it takes extra time for the NCHS to code COVID-19 deaths. More
This tells me the CDC isn’t interested in daily updates of COVID hospital deaths anymore, I wonder why? – Dr. Tar
The only people dying are the jabbed?
The data shows that either the overall number of deaths is declining, or that the percentage and/or total # of vaccinated dying is increasing in defiance of the offical narrative (whatever it might be on any given day). Otherwise, they’d be all over that shit.
The hospitals are lying.
$$$$$$$$$
Maine Med is.
My friend’s sisterin law died of Powassan from a tick.
She tested neg for covid.
The hospital put covid on the death cert.
My friend’s brother was ticked off. They told him not to worry about it.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
So the numbers are fake anyway.
How ironic that the change came on January 6
You wanna talk about fake, the benefits of ivermectin, fake data. Fitting go ahead take your fake crap, you deserve it.
The running daily death count is the job of local news stations!
