Despite the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention declaring an end to the Covid-19 pandemic, the government continues to invest in Covid-19 prevention equipment and measures. A sampling of USASpending.gov records found four new contracts, amounting to $6.5 million, within several weeks related to Covid-19.
On May 11, 2023, the U.S. Public Health Emergency related to the coronavirus pandemic ended. Despite this, agencies like the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense continue to spend millions on Covid-19 related contracts.
The Department of Veterans Affairs made multiple investments to fight Covid-19. On August 14, it spent $1.7 million on a contract for “ensuring adequate Covid-19 protocols for federal contractors.” Then, on August 18, it spent $1.3 million on Covid-19 testing materials. Yet another contract is set to begin on September 22, this one for $2 million for more coronavirus, HIV, and HPV tests.
The DOD is also spending money on Covid-19, with a contract beginning Oct. 1 worth $1.5 million for Covid-19 tests for Madigan Army Medical Center.
This is just a small sample of likely tens of millions in Covid-19 expenditures across the government. It’s perplexing why the government continues to spend money on these, since its own health agency has declared the Covid-19 emergency over, as has the World Health Organization.
Additionally, there are likely countless unused coronavirus tests and personal protective equipment still around after massive purchase orders, making it unclear why massive new investments are needed.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Believe it or not, today’s high priests of climate-change apocalypse are correct in predicting that in just a few short years, the earth will become miserable, wretched and almost uninhabitable by human beings. But the grim future they envision won’t come about because of “catastrophic climate change,” but rather, because of the implementation of their completely insane and truly catastrophic agenda.
As Greenpeace co-founder Dr. Patrick Moore recently admitted, “If they actually achieve Net Zero, at least 50% of the population would die of hunger and disease.” Likewise, writes energy expert and author Alex Epstein: “Today’s proposed policies to rapidly eliminate fossil fuel use would, if fully implemented, have truly apocalyptic consequences – making the world an impoverished, dangerous, and miserable place for most people.”
Question: When the scientific case for global warming apocalypse consists primarily of a 1-degree Celsius rise in temperature over more than 130 years, what explains the obsession with an imminent, climate-caused end of the world?
Although many groups have been drawn into the Climate Change Cult – from the news media (which has warned of climate catastrophe, either global warming or a “new ice age,” for over a century!), to innocent school kids indoctrinated by hysterical leftist teachers, to liberal Democrats who claim “climate change” will destroy the earth in a few years – the REAL villains are the national and global elites who KNOW the apocalyptic global warming religion is just a cruel hoax, but promote and exploit it as a means of accomplishing their ultimate goal: Transforming and ruling the world.
The heart and soul of today’s bizarre, pagan climate-change religion, and the global elites’ strategies for using it to rule all of mankind, is powerfully exposed and illuminated in the September issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, an issue titled “CULT OF THE CLIMATE APOCALYPSE: The elites’ breathtaking strategy for ruling the world.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
