The Coronavirus Public-Health Emergency is Ending

The federal government declared a Public Health Emergency (PHE) for the Coronaviruse in 2020. That allowed the government to provide free COVID-19 testing and vaccinations, and to expand Medicaid coverage to millions of people. Now that the pandemic is winding down, the government will end the PHE on May 11th.
