Testing is in the Stimulus Bill. The House shoul
Post# of 22454
The House should pass it next week
The Senate should pass it the week after.
The President signs it after that.
Should be as soon as March 5th or sometime before March 15th, I hear.
The House bill provides $14 billion for vaccines, $46 billion for testing, contact tracing, and mitigation and $7.6 billion to hire 100,000 public health workers to support coronavirus response. It would also invest $25 billion in addressing health disparities and protecting vulnerable populations.
The President's plan called for investing $20 billion in a national vaccination program. It would also fund the hiring of 100,000 public health workers, nearly tripling the community health workforce.
