President Joe Biden takes off his mask as he arrives to speak about the coronavirus pandemic in the East Room of the White House in Washington, Tuesday, Aug. 3, 2021. In the latest Senate package targeted at stopping the coronavirus, U.S. lawmakers dropped nearly all funding for curbing the virus beyond its borders, in a move many health experts describe as dangerously short-sighted. They warn the suspension of COVID aid for poorer countries could ultimately spur the kind of unchecked transmission needed for the next worrisome variant to emerge. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh) **FILE**
