WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden informed Congress on Monday that he will end the twin national emergencies for addressing COVID-19 on May 11, as most of the world has returned closer to normalcy nearly three years after they were first declared.
The move to end the national emergency and public health emergency declarations would formally restructure the federal coronavirus response to treat the virus as an endemic threat to public health that can be managed through agencies’ normal authorities.
It comes as lawmakers have already ended elements of the emergencies that kept millions of Americans insured during the pandemic. Combined with the drawdown of most federal COVID-19 relief money, it would also shift the development of vaccines and treatments away from the direct management of the federal government.
Former President Donald Trump first declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency on March 13, 2020, the report notes. Since Biden took office in January 2021, he has repeatedly extended the emergency declarations.
Now the White House said on Monday that Biden will briefly extend them both, to end on May 11.
House Republicans had already declared on Monday that they will be passing legislation to end the COVID national emergency and public health emergency.
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) tweeted, “Republicans already getting results. This week we are voting to end the COVID emergency. In response, Biden announces HE IS going to end the COVID-19 emergency declarations. Now that Biden is trying to avoid embarrassment, how will democrats vote? What about vax mandates?”

Jeryl Bier, Editor of Pluribus, tweeted in response to the report, “How in the world do you anticipate the end of an EMERGENCY three-and-a-half months in advance?! If this doesn’t highlight the nonsensical, abusive use of “emergency” in the federal gov’t lexicon, nothing will.”

What an idiot! The vast majority has long ago gotten used to living with the virus!
Now can we enter the adverse effect emergency order? That we can investigate big pharma, and determine if they knew their jab is actually poison to the human heart?
It’s over you want to be dictator. Enough already 🤬
New one incoming!
He’s such an ass!!! 🤢🤢
He stuck his foot in it when he announced last year that the pandemic was over. Now he is trying to save face. AND….He is going to try to push through his tuition rebate by declaring it part of the ‘emergency’ funding and make it extend beyond the ‘emergency’. Just watch.
Covid is everywhere today as it has been for the last 20 years. It appears to have “mutated” to its original nature without the additional gain of function help. Nearly 96% of the public (those with a choice – whatever that means) has refused the vaccine.
Too late loser
V D is for everybody 1969 🎶
Covid is for nobody 2020 🎶
Never was an emergency.
Why not today?
I stopped listening about Cov 19 two years ago. After the first month I saw all the BS .
No he won’t. He has another emergency up his sleeve.
End all COVID mandates! Restore service members to their service and rank with backpay!
Yeah RIGHT…
