New York state’s acting health commissioner admitted at a news conference with Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul that she misled parents about the magnitude of hospitalizations for COVID-19 among children, explaining she raised fears of a concerning trend to “motivate” them to get their children vaccinated.

Dr. Mary Bassett acknowledged Monday that the number of children hospitalized at the time due to the coronavirus was low, about 50, and remained low.
“It really was to motivate pediatricians and families to seek the protection of vaccination,” she said.
Bassett added, however, that “vaccination coverage remains too low,” arguing children “become infected with COVID and some will become hospitalized.”
“We need to get child vaccinations up, particularly in the 5-to-11-year-old age group,” she said.
Bassett, who is fully vaccinated and boosted, tested positive for COVID-19, the governor said Monday. Many children in the hospital with COVID-19 include asymptomatic children admitted for reasons other than infection with the virus, according to Dr. Paul Offit of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
Offit, director of the hospital’s Vaccine Education Center, explained to NBC News in a report Tuesday that the hospital tests patients for COVID regardless of their reason for admittance.

He said they definitely are seeing an increase in cases, but “we’re really not seeing an increase in children who are hospitalized for COVID or in the intensive care unit for COVID.”

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
