From the link:

Quote:
States are currently reporting two fundamentally unlike statistics: current hospital/ICU admissions and cumulative hospitalizations/ICU admissions. Across the country, this reporting is also sparse. In short: it is impossible to assemble anything resembling the real statistics for hospitalizations, ICU admissions, or ventilator usage across the United States. As a result, we will no longer provide national-level summary hospitalizations, ICU admissions, or ventilator usage statistics on our site.

We will continue tracking these numbers on a state-by-state basis, but it does not feel responsible to continue to display these US-wide statistics for a general audience. These heavily caveated numbers will remain in the API for advanced data users.
