	Description:		Until now, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has collected important information about COVID-19 hospitalizations and equipment from around the country. The Trump Administration now says hospitals must stop reporting that data to the CDC and instead send information to a different federal database. Meanwhile, four states have agreed to share driver's license records to help the Trump administration produce citizenship data. NPR's Hansi Lo Wang reports this data could be used for redrawing voting districts. And some imported surgical masks are turning out to be defective. Sellers of the masks are touting FDA certificates but those certificates are useless. Find and support your local public radio station. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.
