New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said the state is making an adjustment regarding how hospitals will report patient intake by separating hospitalizations with COVID-19 or because of COVID-19 amid an increase of cases driven, in part, by the Omicron variant.
“So we’re looking at a critical moment, but we’re going to start asking some questions. We talked about the hospitalizations. I have always wondered, we’re looking at the hospitalizations of people testing positive in a hospital,” Hochul, a Democrat, said Monday.
