Undercover Epicenter Nurse blows the lid off the COVID-19 pandemic

Undercover Epicenter Nurse blows the lid off the COVID-19 pandemic.

What would you do if you discovered that the media and the government were lying to us all? And that millions of people were dying because of it?

Combat veteran and nurse Erin Olszewski's most deeply-held values were put to the test when she arrived as a travel nurse at Elmhurst Hospital in the epicentre of the COVID-19 pandemic. After serving years in Iraq, she was back on the frontlinesβ€”and this time, she found, the situation was even worse.

Rooms were filthy, nurses were lax with sanitation measures, and hospital-acquired cases of COVID-19 were spreading like wildfire.

Worse, people who had tested negative multiple times for COVID-19 were being labeled as COVID-confirmed and put on COVID-only floors. Put on ventilators and drugged up with sedatives, these patients quickly deterioratedβ€”even though they did not have coronavirus when they checked in.

Doctors-in-training were refusing to perform CPRβ€”and banning nurses from doing itβ€”on dying patients whose families had not consented to 'Do Not Resuscitate' orders.

The malpractice and corruption were out of control, and all because the hospital was getting a payday for every diagnosed patient.

Erin wasn't about to stand by and let her patients keep dying on her watch, but she knew that if she told the truth, people wouldn't believe her. It was just too shocking. Willing to go to battle for her patients, Erin made the decision to go deep undercover, recording conversations with other nurses, videos of malpractice, and more. She began to share what she found on social media. Unsurprisingly, she was fired for it.

Now, Erin is standing up to tell the whole horrifying story of what happened inside Elmhurst Hospital to demand justice for those who fell victim to the hospital's greed. Not only must the staff be held accountable for their unethical actions; but also, this kind of corruption must be destroyed so that future Americans are not put at risk. The deaths have to end, and Erin won't rest until the bad actors are exposed.

Undercover Epicenter Nurse: How Fraud, Negligence, and Greed Led to Unnecessary Deaths at Elmhurst Hospital is a shocking and infuriating inside expose of the American healthcare system gone wrong. At the same time, it's the story of a woman who traveled from the small town streets of Wisconsin, to the battlefields of Iraq, to the mean streets of Queens, on a quest to help fight for her country. With this book, the real battle has begun.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Praised for its courage and eye-opening revelations, the book is called a 'scandal' by Tucker Carlson and earns commendation from Dr. Joseph Mercola for its brave testimony during the pandemic. Reviewers highlight its importance in protecting patients' rights and exposing dangerous hospital policies, making it a critical read for those seeking the truth behind the COVID-19 crisis within New York City hospitals.

About the Author

Erin Marie Olszewski, BSN, RN, has spent her life fighting for the freedom of everyday Americans. As a young woman, she joined the US Army to fight overseas in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Returning home, she turned her focus, drive, and dedication to defending our most deeply held values on American soil. Erin has spent years fighting for medical freedom. As a registered nurse and a mom of a vaccine-injured child, she has seen firsthand the effects of forced treatment on infants, young children, and adults. In 2020, Erin volunteered for the front lines yet again as a traveling nurse assigned to New York's Elmhurst hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic. What she found there horrified her and inspired a new focus to her advocacy. Erin's forthcoming book, The Undercover Epicenter Nurse, will reveal how gross negligence, insurance fraud, medical malpractice, and good old-fashioned greed are killing everyday Americans at Elmhurst and beyond. Her new fight is a fight for a return to ethics, transparency, and respect for the truth-values sorely needed in the medical field today, and in our country at large. Everyday Americans are needed in that battle as well. Join her.

J.B. Handley is the author of How to End the Autism Epidemic and is the co-founder and chairman of Generation Rescue. He is also the co-producer of the documentary film Autism Yesterday and the co-founder of the Age of Autism blog.
