Last week, the Biden Administration extended the COVID public health emergency (PHE) by another 90 days. While the numbers of COVID cases continues to go down, still the U.S> is still seeing more than 300 people dying a day from the PHE.
“If you are up to date with your vaccines and if you get treated, if you have a breakthrough infection, your risk of dying from COVID is now close to zero,” White House COVID-19 response coordinator Ashish Jha said Tuesday.
“We know there’s more work to do with real challenges ahead of us as we head into the fall and winter and the holidays. We’re doing everything we can as an administration to stay ahead of this virus.
