President Biden on Monday signed a bill that formally ends the public health emergency on COVID-19.
Mr. Biden planned to end the emergency in early May, but Congress forced him to speed up his timeline, saying it was time to reel in special government authorities as society returns to normal.Former President Donald Trump first issued a national emergency declaration regarding the coronavirus in March 2020, as the virus that was discovered in Wuhan, China, in late 2019 ripped through America.
Mr. Biden said key players in the COVID-19 response needed time to wind down the emergency designation, though Republicans who took the House majority this year said Mr. Biden’s expiration date of May 11 was too long of a runway given that society is fully reopened, masks are largely gone and the virus that killed nearly 7 million people worldwide no longer dominates the headlines.
