Morning Rounds



House votes on pandemic preparedness act

Meanwhile, the House is voting today on a bill that would reauthorize the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act, a law that enables federal agencies to spend money to plan for for natural and human-made disasters. For months, drug companies and public health advocates had pushed to include incentives for developing new drugs to combat antibiotic resistance into the bill, but those efforts didn’t pan out. The House is also voting on a bill that would allow pharmacists to tell consumers when it's cheaper to buy a drug without insurance.
