-Breh, keep up. I'm not saying don't note they have Covid. I'm saying don't note Covid as the reason for going in.
-If I go in cause my asthma flairs up that's that. I can have them look at my pancreas while I'm there, it's still not why I came in. If I find out I have Covid while I'm there, it's still not why I came in. Those are different numbers. No reason to change the stats on why I came in.



so an asthma flare up is unrelated to covid-19 which is a respiratory illness? ok, you don't want to count pre-existing conditions even if covid makes it worse.

-I was just using that as an example, none of my asthma flare ups were Covid related & I've never had Covid. We can keep using a broken bone if it makes you feel better, the point's the same.

Wrong. If you are hospitalized for appendicitis and have a heart attack, you are reclassified as a coronary patient.

Same rules apply.

Besides, you can't place someone with COVID in the same room as someone without it.

Anti-vaxxers are bad at logic.​
That’s because you ARE hospitalized for the heart attack. You came in with an inflamed appendix. You just happened to have a heart attack while you already at the hospital. In which case there is no issue with being counted as a coronary admittance. That’s nowhere near the same thing. What a dumbass analogy to use.
:mjlol:

And who’s antivax fakkit? :umad:

And there's NO difference between this and contracting/being diagnosed with a highly infectious disease after coming in for something else and being re-categorized as a COVID case BECAUSE YOU'RE ALREADY IN THE HOSPITAL......you absolute moron.

Thanks for destroying your own weak-ass argument.

Dummy.

Get vaccinated.

:snooze:

It’s not called COVID Hospitalization because that’s where you were diagnosed. COVID Hospitalization is suffering illness serious enough to require hospital treatment due to COVID. They aren’t contracting COVID “after being admitted”. You have asymptomatic people going to the hospital for completely unrelated shyt like a broken finger getting tagged as someone who suffered from severe COVID cases that required hospitalization. That’s what the OP is about. You talking dumb shyt. I’m already vaccinated. Fatherless fakkit.

If they come in for a broken leg, the staff has to take vitals and whatnot. If it is discovered at that time or later they have COVID, they are classified as a COVID case.

Also, people contract other diseases at hospitals ALL the time so it is entirely plausible that after being admitted for something else, they contract COVID.​

Your criticism is dumb and fails.​

And as I said, COVID Case, yes. But COVID Hospitalization, it is not.

It IS a hospitalization for COVID once they've been diagnosed with it.

What? You think if someone is admitted for tonsillitis and THEN contracts COVID, they should still be classified as ONLY tonsillitis?

That's stupid.​

My wife is currently in the hospital for a broken femur and tested positive for Covid, so she is there for the broken femur and on the Covid floor. I have Covid and am not in the hospital. I don’t understand what the difference is, if she had not broken her femur, would she be in the hospital? Maybe, maybe not, but the fact still remains, she has Covid and is taking up a bed in the hospital, on the Covid floor.

Ain't no problem. These guys just shook cowards.
