New legislation will provide more funding than US$2.5 bil initially sought by Trump administration. FMTNews Virus US

WASHINGTON: The US House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved on Wednesday a US$8.3 billion bill to combat the spread of the new coronavirus and develop vaccines for the highly contagious disease, sending it to the Senate for final passage.

The measure would provide far more money than the US$2.5 billion initially sought by the Trump administration. “We all fly in these dirty airports, we touch and selfie everyone we meet and then we congregate together,” the Florida congressman said.‘Not where we want to be’ Gaetz said that while the United States was gearing up in the production of virus test kits, “we’re not where we want to be. The vice president made that very clear that we’ve got to get more test assets in place.”
