COVID still hasn't receded: Biden administration extends state of emergency on virus

According to the agency, the U.S. government will once again extend the public health emergency due to Covid-19. The measures involve providing millions of Americans with access to health insurance and telemedicine services.

The Biden administration previously said it would give states 60 days' notice before the emergency ends. However, there are rumors that the services could be extended indefinitely beyond July 15, the end date of the current state of emergency.

The continuation of the measures implies that a significant amount of government spending will remain in place.
