With the signing of the 90 day renewal (October 13, 2022) of the Public Health Emergency declaration by the Sec’y of HHS, we need to start asking the question, “Are we in a state of perpetual approval of the Public Health Emergency and continuation of The PREP Act(s)?”
Good question. The PREP Act and the Public Health Emergency statute leave the Sec'y of HHS unchecked. So the Executive Branch can do what it wants to without any oversight by Congress.
Where the hell are our congresscritters asking why? What is the emergency? PROVE IT.
This piece of regulation needs to be amended and deleted by our congress, in its ENTIRETY.
WHY ARE THEY NOT CRAFTING IT NOW?
Good question. The PREP Act and the Public Health Emergency statute leave the Sec'y of HHS unchecked. So the Executive Branch can do what it wants to without any oversight by Congress.
