Chief officials are warning that the coming fall and winter seasons could bring along a devastating Covid surge that the country will not be prepared to handle. Meanwhile, the number of Americans reporting that they are still worried about the virus is reaching lows, and the virus is less deadly than ever, according to official figures.Dr Ashish Jha, the White House's response coordinator, pushed congress to provide the administration with more Covid relief funding during a White House press briefing on Thursday. The funds were pulled out of a bill earlier this year, and now some are warning the country will not have access to the vaccines or therapeutics like Paxlovid should more funding not be approved.Many in congress are instead pushing to use the money elsewhere, though, and some in the American public will likely agree. A Gallup Poll published last month found that only 31 percent of Americans report being 'somewhat worried' or 'very worried' about catching COVID-19.
