The CDC has plans to replace the old system
COVID-19 has caused a public health crisis unlike any other in recent memory, but three years into the pandemic, there are signs that governments and public health authorities are ready to start putting the urgency of the threat in the past. On May 5, the World Health Organization that COVID-19 is no longer a “public health emergency of international concern,” and is now “an established and ongoing health issue.
The way that the U.S. tracks and monitors COVID-19 will also change. “We lived through an historic moment that compelled the federal government to mobilize massive amounts of support to respond to COVID-19,” says Jen Kates, director of global health & HIV at the non-profit Kaiser Family Foundation. “When the public health emergency ends, we’re going back to the regular system, and not all of our challenges have been solved.”What will change:The U.S.
After May 11, states and jurisdictions will no longer be required to report cases to the CDC, so the data the agency will receive won’t allow them to accurately capture the burden of COVID-19 cases in any given county.The CDC will now rely on hospital admissions data, which hospitals will continue to report to the CDC. Hospitalizations are “the main driver of community levels of COVID-19,” said Dr. Brendan Jackson, lead of the CDC’s COVID-19 response, during a briefing.
