LilKahuna, reading your and KarinCA's recent posts re research in the 2 Trillion bill kind of makes you sad. Maybe next bill, so I hope those of us who call, email, text their Congressional reps need to keep doing so, though in reality that is probably a fool's errand.

This link is a rough outline of where funds went.

A very flawed bill with lot's of pork from both sides of the aisle. Massie was right to try to get more discussion and a roll-call vote.

As discussed last week, $8 billion was approved for CoV research and drug development. There is nothing more authorized in the $2 trillion stimulus, that I have been able to find. The new House bill aims at shoring up hospital shortfalls, patient treatments and more distressed family giveaways. Nothing more for research that I know of.
