Covid politics

A physician on TV this AM expressed surprise that the Covid is being politicized. He wondered why the $1.9 trillion relief package was necessary when the scientist say the Covid will be over by the time any of the relief is sent out. $4 trillion has been allocated and so far $3 trillion has been sent out. The other one trillion is sitting in the bank. Why add another $1.9 trillion on top of that. He wondered why so little of the new stimulus is money for Covid. He suggested that the Covid portion be approved and that the rest be worked out over time. Next step is to approve the checks for individuals and small business. He wonders why the Teachers Union is involved. Science says its OK to go back to school. He seems not to understand that politics seeps into every issue. Party still trumps country.
