White House: Without Funding U.S. Will Lose COVID Treatments

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON — For much of the past two years, America has been first in line for COVID-19 vaccines and treatments. Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Hong Kong have all placed orders for treatments and vaccine doses that the U.S. can’t yet commit to, according to the White House. “We know companies are working on additional, promising life-saving treatments that could protect the American people, and without additional funding from Congress, we risk losing out on accessing these treatments, as well as tests and vaccines, while other countries get in front of us in line,” said White House spokesman Kevin Munoz. Earlier this month, former White House COVID-19 coordinator Jeff Zients said Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Hong Kong had already secured future booster doses. “Congress would have to take action in order for the day not to be May 23,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday.
