The Biden administration will send out response teams made up mostly of government health experts to help areas of the United States experiencing an uptick in COVID-19 cases due to the highly transmissible delta variant.
“As we continue to work with communities across the country to get more shots in arms, we will also be working with governors and state and local health authorities to identify and address the needs on the ground in places with emergency outbreaks,” White House COVID-19 czar Jeff Zients said.
The “surge response” teams will include staff from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response. The teams will provide help to states by supplying local health officials with more diagnostic tests and COVID-19 treatments, such as monoclonal antibody therapies.
