LOS ANGELES, March 28 (Xinhua) -- The United States is making a potentially deadly mistake by waiting to invest until there is another COVID-19 surge, said a report of the Northern Kentucky Tribune.

Throughout the coronavirus pandemic, the U.S. Congress has moved fast (by its standards) to provide trillions of U.S. dollars for response, said the report published on Sunday. "But now, with the country seeing plunging rates of cases, hospitalizations and deaths, there appears to be a limited appetite for doing more."
