Nullifies specified guidance issued by the White House Coronavirus Task Force on July 10, 2020, concerning the reporting of state and hospital COVID-19 (i.e., coronavirus disease 2019) data. Specifically, states and hospitals must revert to reporting this data directly to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
