On February 20, 2022 the New York Times reports that the CDC has collected data on hospitalizations for COVID-19 in the United States and broken it down by age, race and vaccination status, but most of the information has been hidden from the public and independent scientists. [1]

“Two full years into the pandemic, the agency leading the country’s response to the public health emergency [the CDC] has published only a tiny fraction of the data it has collected”, because they claim ” it’s not yet ready for prime time”.  The NY Times goes on to state “[m]uch of the withheld information could help state and local health officials better target their efforts to bring the virus under control.”

Doctors call this hiding of data by a public health agency, “scientific fraud”. [2, 3]
