New York Finally Releases its First Breakdown of People Hospitalized FOR Covid vs. People Hospitalized WITH Covid
The media on Friday went into overdrive with Covid fear porn and reported: “NY Covid Hospitalizations Top 11K as State Reports Highest Single-Day Deaths Since Mass Vaccine Rollout”
However, more than half of the ‘Covid hospitalizations’ reported in New York are not due to Covid.
New York state finally released its first breakdown of what share of people are hospitalized FOR Covid vs. how many people are hospitalized WITH Covid.
In NYC, 49% of people hospitalized were admitted for COVID, everyone else just happened to test positive.
New York Governor Hochul on Friday updated New Yorkers on the state’s progress combating Covid.
Below is data that shows how many hospitalized individuals who have tested positive for COVID-19 were admitted for COVID-19/COVID-19 complications and how many were admitted for non-COVID-19 conditions:
In NYC, 51% of patients who count as “hospitalized with COVID” were admitted for reasons other than COVID and then tested positive for it anyway.
