It was something I\u2019ve never seen before,\u201d she said. \u201cPatients were alone in the rooms on ventilators [with] no family allowed in [to advocate for them]. People were just dying from gross negligence, medical malpractice, [and] mismanagement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor me, that was really difficult to swallow. Everything made sense to me at that moment of why there were so many deaths in New York,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Following a good cry back in her hotel room, she eventually contacted an attorney in New York, secured a \u201cpair of spyglasses\u201d and began to document what she saw in the hospital.<\/p>\n<div class=\"art-video-inline\">\n<div class=\"art-video-embed\" data-entry-id=\"215092\" data-entry-urltitle=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UIDsKdeFOmQ\" data-event-type=\"Video\" data-event-play=\"Play Article Video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"entryid-215092\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UIDsKdeFOmQ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cI recorded them murdering patients. I recorded just the complete and absolute disregard for human life,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>According to the video, Olzewski revealed how patients who repeatedly tested negative for COVID-19 were being described as \u201cCOVID confirmed\u201d in their charts, which triggered a higher compensation from government payouts.<\/p>\n<p>She contrasted the treatments that they had provided in Florida to what was happening in New York. \u201c[In Florida] we treated our patients with hydroxychloroquine, zinc \u2026 sent them home and they were fine.\u201d In New York, \u201cthey were banning alternative treatments like hydroxychloroquine. The only thing they could do was to put people on ventilators.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the time, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) provided what some called \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/minnesota-lawmakers-claim-40-percent-inflation-in-state-covid-death-numbers\">perverse incentives<\/a>\u201d instituted by government COVID-19 relief funding, which awarded significantly more compensation to hospitals should patients be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/hospitals-have-incentive-to-inflate-covid-deaths-cdc-chief-admits\">classified<\/a> as COVID-19 positive ($13,000) or if they are put on a ventilator ($39,000).<\/p>\n<p>Olzewski indicated these incentives dramatically impacted what was happening at Elmhurst. \u201cYou know, $13,000 to admit [COVID-19 classified] patients, and they were just admitting everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She further alleged that with the $39,000 incentive, the hospital would then put admitted patients \u201con a ventilator that they knew would kill them.\u201d In addition, \u201cin some cases\u201d there was an incentive of \u201c$10,000 [for] every death.\u201d With families kicked out and not being able to monitor, it was \u201cthe perfect storm, and people took advantage of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on lockdowns last year, and presently in some places, she said they have always been \u201ccompletely uncalled for. People stayed home and got even more sick, so that caused even more deaths.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As most states sought to justify their lockdowns on statistics coming out of New York, Olzewski criticized the injustice of \u201ctaking away peoples\u2019 freedoms based on New York numbers \u2026 which now we know we\u2019re lies.\u201d Much of these high fatality rates, she said, came from \u201c[Gov. Andrew] Cuomo putting these [COVID-19] patients into nursing homes\u201d spreading the infection through members of the most vulnerable population.<\/p>\n<p>New York state nursing home deaths for the period topped 15,000, and following Cuomo\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/aide-admits-ny-gov-hid-covid-19-nursing-home-deaths-to-avoid-investigation\">cover-up<\/a> of these figures, there have been <a href=\"https:\/\/americanlookout.com\/calls-grow-for-andrew-cuomo-to-resign-over-cover-up-of-nursing-home-covid-deaths\/\">many<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/03\/06\/new-yorks-capital-newspaper-editorial-board-resign-mr-cuomo\/\">calls<\/a> for his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/elise-stefanik-cuomo-resign-nursing-home-cover-up-harassment\">resignation<\/a> even from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vox.com\/2021\/3\/13\/22328860\/andrew-cuomo-resign-democrats\">members<\/a> of his own Democratic party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the lockdowns are causing a lot more harm\u201d than the virus, Olzewski said. These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/report-affirms-lockdowns-are-causing-major-harm-to-minds-bodies-livelihoods\">include<\/a> \u00a0\u201cemotional issues, depression, suicide, just the mal-health of everybody who is living in fear itself. It\u2019s just no way to live. It\u2019s un-American to take away freedoms based on a false narrative.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With regards to advice, she emphasized the need to focus on one\u2019s health using natural methods. \u201cNo one is focusing on preventative health and what you can do. Quercetin is a natural alternative to hydroxychloroquine, you can get over-the-counter, take it with zinc, vitamin C, get outside, [and get] good exercise. Get healthy, [and] drink water,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBe brave. Be bold. And step outside of your comfort zone. If you see something say something and think about future generations to come. If you don\u2019t fight right now, then who\u2019s going to do it? Who is going to fight? For me, [the incentive] is my kids\u2026 It\u2019s our future generations. And the time is now to step up and to change the world. We can\u2019t let them steal [our freedom] from us,\u201d Olzewski concluded.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/nyc-covid-nurse-turned-whistleblower-people-were-just-dying-from-gross-negligence-medical-malpractice\">https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/nyc-covid-nurse-turned-whistleblower-people-were-just-dying-from-gross-negligence-medical-malpractice<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COVID nurse explains becoming a whistleblower: \u2018I recorded them murdering patients\u2019 &#8216;The very first day [at Elmhurst] I was shocked.
