https://www.localmemphis.com/mobile/article/news/health/coronavirus/cdc-covid-hospital-website-restored/507-b7437dd4-2b72-427c-89df-80ea76ca8ebaThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention restored a web page Thursday with national hospitalization data, including that related to COVID-19. The Trump administration reportedly received backlash after it was taken down, but the restored information may not be updated going forward.
This came after the Department of Health and Human Services told hospitals last week to no longer submit its COVID-19 information to the CDC's National Healthcare Safety Network and to send it to HHS instead. It has sparked concerns about transparency and public access to the data.

(1,849 posts)1. No more deaths from Covid 19!
Sarcasm!
And ultimately, if we don't count or report the deaths, they will stop!
And really, who cares about counting the cases; if no deaths are reported or counted then no one is dying from it. So it doesn't matter if you catch it?!?!
Of course cult 45 wants to get the data first, so they can adjust it.
I've been fuming about this since it was first reported.

Like easing into the water when it's cold. Slowly at first, a little at a time.
