COVID nurse explains becoming a whistleblower: ‘I recorded them murdering patients’

Erin Maria Olzewski, the whistleblower nurse who made headlines last year documenting “fraud, negligence, and greed” that “led to unnecessary deaths” during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, sat down with LifeSiteNews during the Health & Freedom Conference to share her experience and reflections.

Olzewski (pronounced OL-CHEZ-SKEE), whose findings were first brought to light in a viral June video titled “Perspectives on the Pandemic: The (Undercover) Epicenter Nurse,” received a strong appreciative reception from the sold-out, 4,000-person event held at Rhema Bible College.

A native of Wisconsin, yet a current resident of the Tampa, Florida area, Olzewski, explained how she volunteered to temporarily work as a travel nurse in New York City telling LifeSite’s Rebekah Roberts, “we weren’t seeing a large influx of [COVID-19] patients” in Florida.

Also being an Army combat veteran who served in Iraq from 2003 to 2004, Olzewski mentioned how she decided to enter another type of “frontlines war zone,” by serving those in greater need at the “epicenter” of the pandemic.

Upon arrival she was surprised to find that she “sat around for three days with nothing to do” and learned that other nurses had been “sitting around for 21 days or an entire month getting paid $10,000 a week,” without any assignment. “If they needed nurses so badly, why are you bringing me here if there’s nurses sitting around?” she asked, describing this as her first “red flag” that the reality of the situation in New York was not what was being reported in the news media.

And, “lucky me,” she said with a smile and a touch of sarcasm, “I did get assigned to Elmhurst Hospital [in Queens] which ended up being ‘the epicenter of the epicenter’” for reported COVID-19 fatalities.

“The very first day [at Elmhurst] I was shocked. It was something I’ve never seen before,” she said. “Patients 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.”

“For 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,” she said.

Following a good cry back in her hotel room, she eventually contacted an attorney in New York, secured a “pair of spyglasses” and began to document what she saw in the hospital.

“I recorded them murdering patients. I recorded just the complete and absolute disregard for human life,” she said.

According to the video, Olzewski revealed how patients who repeatedly tested negative for COVID-19 were being described as “COVID confirmed” in their charts, which triggered a higher compensation from government payouts.

She contrasted the treatments that they had provided in Florida to what was happening in New York. “[In Florida] we treated our patients with hydroxychloroquine, zinc … sent them home and they were fine.” In New York, “they were banning alternative treatments like hydroxychloroquine. The only thing they could do was to put people on ventilators.”

At the time, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) provided what some called “perverse incentives” instituted by government COVID-19 relief funding, which awarded significantly more compensation to hospitals should patients be classified as COVID-19 positive ($13,000) or if they are put on a ventilator ($39,000).

Olzewski indicated these incentives dramatically impacted what was happening at Elmhurst. “You know, $13,000 to admit [COVID-19 classified] patients, and they were just admitting everybody.”

She further alleged that with the $39,000 incentive, the hospital would then put admitted patients “on a ventilator that they knew would kill them.” In addition, “in some cases” there was an incentive of “$10,000 [for] every death.” With families kicked out and not being able to monitor, it was “the perfect storm, and people took advantage of it.”

Reflecting on lockdowns last year, and presently in some places, she said they have always been “completely uncalled for. People stayed home and got even more sick, so that caused even more deaths.”

As most states sought to justify their lockdowns on statistics coming out of New York, Olzewski criticized the injustice of “taking away peoples’ freedoms based on New York numbers … which now we know we’re lies.” Much of these high fatality rates, she said, came from “[Gov. Andrew] Cuomo putting these [COVID-19] patients into nursing homes” spreading the infection through members of the most vulnerable population.

New York state nursing home deaths for the period topped 15,000, and following Cuomo’s cover-up of these figures, there have been many calls for his resignation even from members of his own Democratic party.

“But the lockdowns are causing a lot more harm” than the virus, Olzewski said. These include “emotional issues, depression, suicide, just the mal-health of everybody who is living in fear itself. It’s just no way to live. It’s un-American to take away freedoms based on a false narrative.”

With regards to advice, she emphasized the need to focus on one’s health using natural methods. “No 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,” she said.

“Be 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’t fight right now, then who’s going to do it? Who is going to fight? For me, [the incentive] is my kids… It’s our future generations. And the time is now to step up and to change the world. We can’t let them steal [our freedom] from us,” Olzewski concluded.

BUMP!

[AppyPappy]

The Democrat media is going to declare war on her if this gets out.

[nevermorelenore]

Watched this Streamed ~ she was AMAZING !!!

[moovova]

I’m sorry...I just couldn’t read the entire thing thinking about the patients being treated like this. The perpetrators should be hung by their toes and skinned alive.

Nurse Olzewski is God’s Warrior.

[SueRae]

I winder if Janice Dean has had a chance to speak with her. She lost both of her in laws in Cuomo’s mess.

[bray]

They had an election to steal and this helped them do it.

[conservativeimage]

Misdiagnose infection, win $13,000 bonus from government mafia.

Put virus as cause of death on death certificate, win $39,000 bonus from government mafia.

I need the document recording this to show people. I've only heard word of mouth.

[Mom MD]

Her story didn’t ring true then and it does not ring true now. We treated everyone with hcq at the beginning. They still died - it didn’t help. We had plenty to admit we were not going around looking for others to admit. much the opposite we were doing everything we could to send people
home. I wonder what her qualifications are to determine malpractice - most nurses would t know what is and isn’t malpractice. I think i someone is enjoying the attention.... Not to say things werent awful but the real crime was sending covid patients to nursing homes etc.

This is excellent. Just over 2 hours long. Interview plus call-in segment with questions from viewers.

[call meVeronica]

bump

[mowowie]

Did you guys also include Zinc With Either Azithromycin or Doxycycline for the Treatment of your COVID-19 patients or just HCQ?

[joe fonebone]

I agree with you. Hang them all!!!!

But, it needs to go deeper. Follow the money.
Who set up the payment schedule for covid and ventilator payouts?

Who administered the payouts?

What was required in order to get the payout?

And finally, Who approved and send out the cash?

Answer these questions, and you will know who needs to be drawn and quartered instead of just hung.

[Mom MD]

They got the whole cocktail. doxycycline not azithromycin. None of the got up off the bed and walked home. My hospital system has a lot of hospitals in florida and they were begging us to send nurses to Florida to cover the demand at this time. I have family and friends who are ICU docs in Florida - they were swamped not miraculously curing people that died everywhere else. I have no idea how much a hospital makes for any given drg or diagnosis and have never heard of getting paid extra for deaths yet a traveling nurse knows all of this on her first day. I’m sorry her story stinks. Yes it was traumatic to care for these patients and hospital conditions were not pretty but what she is saying does not ring true on many fronts I have pinged some other physicians who treated covid patients to share their experiences if they wish

[sten]

And that’s why she had contacted a lawyer and started wearing a spycam to record what she was seeing

[hsmomx3]

Was thinking the same thing.

I hope justice is served but not holding my breath.

[moovova]

It sends me into depression knowing none of the questions you asked will be followed up on...especially in Blue States. And there definitely won’t be any encouragement from the Biden Admin to pursue justice.

[Pollard]

I don’t doubt that in the big blue cities, everything was/is called covid for the money it brought in. These are the same people who vote Early & Often. They have zero problem with lying. Most hospitals should be out of business by now with the cancellation of elective and non-emergency procedures but they’re still in bu$ine$$.

As far as ventilators, I think most just thought that was what they needed to do until they noticed the death rate of people put on ventilators was near 100% at which time anyone who wasn’t truly evil said, no, we can’t keep doing this. It’s also a possibility that some people are so callous, that they just kept doing it.

All we heard was NY and everyone else needing more ventilators so Trump got more. Then the calls for ventilators suddenly stopped.

(And Erin Maria Olzewski; dayum. Who knew Irish/Hispanic/Polish would go so good together.)

[Mom MD]

where is the legal and state board action that came out of that? The only result I see is a nurse has a lucrative speaking tour and website Of course we know there are no scummy lawyers that would participate in such a scheme

[Jane Long]

If this gets out?

It’s out!
