In the US, we may be about to lose all of our reporting on hospitalizations. An HHS bulletin from November noted that hospital's COVID reporting was extended “from the end of the current PHE (Public Health Emergency) through April 30, 2024.”

I hope we continue to see hospitalization data, but we may not. The US has seen 265,966 COVID hospitalizations in the first four months of this “post-pandemic” “COVID is over” year.

@augieray my 6th friend to die was about 2 months ago, but everyone thinks it’s over :/

@baba_lilith I'm very sorry.

@augieray election year in the US, near zero chance this gets extended in the case of a fall surge for opponents to use as a convenient talking point.

Hopefully I’m wrong…
