New medical diagnosis codes for COVID-19 immunization status have been added in the United States.
One code is for being “unvaccinated for COVID-19.”
That code “may be assigned when the patient has not received at least one dose of any COVID-19 vaccine,” the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which implemented the new codes in 2022, states in a document outlining the codes.
Another code is for being partially vaccinated or having received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine but not having received enough doses to meet the CDC’s definition of fully vaccinated.
The goal of the codes is “to track people who are not immunized or only partially

FTA:
xperts say the codes don’t fit with the International Classification of Diseases, which has diagnoses for diseases and reasons for health care visits.
“They’re treating nonvaccination as if this is a hazardous exposure that therefore merits being recorded as a medical exposure,” Dr. Harvey Risch, professor emeritus of epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health, told The Epoch Times. “That’s never been done to my knowledge.”

How long before this code is adopted by for profit hospital systems? Triage status: oops! You go to the back of the ER line.

There really does need to be a code, one for those vaccinated. This will be treated as a hazardous exposure, indicating a medical exposure, unfortunately for many who are marked for death.

I wish I could use all caps and underlining for this quote FTA:
''Using these codes also disregards the contribution of natural immunity, which research evidence shows is more robust than vaccine immunity,''

This is NOT OK. Whether you got their evil mRNA shots or not is private.

The CDC, along with the FDA (and the FBI), should be defunded and disbanded. Their usefulness has always been questionable; now, it’s nonexistent.

From the article, I learned that influenza is deadlier for children than COVID-19, but there is no code for refusal to get the vaccine. If the tracking was being done in the interest of protecting children, why wasn't the flu shot prioritized over the experimental COVID-19 vaccine?
On his first day in office, I learned that Joe Biden decreed people from anywhere in the world were entitled to enter the US illegally. Their vaccination status was not mentioned as a barrier to accepting his "invitation" to invade the US. Thanks to Joe, over 5 million of his "guests" and hundreds of thousands of "got aways" are free to roam on our soil. A reasonable person might notice the inconsistency in his position that AMERICANS deserve to be tracked while illegal aliens do not.

#5, COVID-19 literally is caused by the SARS-2 coronavirus. An infection is a SARS-CO-2 infection. A certain set of symptoms is COVID-19.
I avoid government doctors as much as possible. Because of the fascist collusion between the health care industry and government, that would be most of them.

The CCP put that portion of their population who showed any COVID symptoms into Quarantine Camps or welded them into their apartments with no food … it didn’t help.
“The Sniffer” has a special interest in those “insurrectionist” Americans who did not explicitly follow his unsafe vaccinations ORDERS. What will he DO to them (and their bank accounts) once the CBDCs are in force? THAT can’t happen here?
With communists in charge, anything is possible. Ask the parents who objected at school board meetings.
Or the healthcare workers who were fired for declining “vaccinations.” Been following the PILOTS’ problems after THEIR vaccinations ? OR the Athletes? …. JUST Sit down and SHUT UP, pal because WE know where you live.

"MARK OF THE BEAST" anyone?
The time to choose is upon us.
Either we capitulate or we bring this whole shenanigan to an end.
Pick one...

In my solo medical practice, I often ask patients if they have been vaccinated for COVID, particularly if they have a respiratory infection. However, I don’t report or use that status in billing. I don’t know if the electronic medical record systems in use require it or not, since I don’t use the EMR. We have not had a single patient death from covid. The diagnostic “tests” are completely unreliable in any event, with such high false positive and negative results. We do use President Trump’s early recommendation re. treatment if symptoms suggest. Often people insist on treatment if they have self tested “positive”.

I would normally never post twice but...
I was born a very long time ago. My first vaccination with the rudimentary vaccines of the time, blew me up like a Chinese spy balloon and put me in the hospital for a week. In that part of the century, that was a long stay. Our doctor at the time, a pragmatist rather than a modern dogmatist said "well, we aren't going to do THAT again" and wrote a letter which got me from 1st through 12th grade with no vaccinations. I was quarantined a few times, and I did get the polio vax in the mid 50's. By the time I went to college nobody cared any longer.
I have NEVER been asked for my vaccination information in my adult life. It hasn't been considered important.
So now we have this disease which OUR GOVERNMENT CREATED. It is basically a flu. And we are all supposed to have vaccination cards?? Excuse me, polio was far worse and I didn't get a vax card for that.
This entire situation is the government creating and maintaining an extreme level of control over its citizens. They made the disease, they made the vax, they spread it all over the world, and now we're supposed to line up like kindergarteners to get whatever reward the gov has in mind.
People, if you let this happen, your life is OVER! Your government will own you lock, stock, and barrel for the rest of your life. The time has come to rise up and throw this yoke off, BEFORE they have a chance to lock it down.

Wondering if the first 2 letters of that code are “f” and “u.”
