U.S. faces avoidable Covid deaths if Congress fails to pass funding bill, top health official warns
, while people age 12 and older can receive a fifth dose.
"We have to plan for a scenario where we don't get any more resources from Congress. I think it would be terrible. I think we would see a lot of unnecessary loss if that were to happen," Jha said. More than two years into the pandemic, 1 million people in the U.S. have already died from Covid. Jha also said Covid test manufacturers in the U.S. are already laying off workers and shutting down production lines because demand has dropped and the federal government doesn't have enough money to support them. In the coming weeks, they will likely sell off equipment and get out of the business altogether. That would leave the U.S. dependent on test manufacturers in other countries if there's a wave in the fall and demand for testing suddenly surges like it did over the winter.
