• American hospitals are no longer required to report daily coronavirus death counts to the US Department of Health and Human Services
  • The CDC will continue to collect and report COVID data from death certificates
  • The policy change, which was announced in January, went into effect last Wednesday, just days ahead of the US death toll surpassing 900,000  
  • The US reported 902,266 COVID deaths Sunday and a 7-day average of 2,704 
  • Some health officials are calling the reporting policy change ‘incomprehensible,’ alleging the hospital data is more reliable than that of the CDC
  • However, the American Hospital Association claims the CDC’s reports are more accurate because it accounts for deaths that occurred outside of hospitals
