Coronavirus: US Congress passes $484bn economic relief bill

The US Congress has passed a new Covid-19 relief package totalling $484bn (£391bn), the fourth aid bill to clear Congress in response to the pandemic.

The legislation, approved 388-5 by the House of Representatives, tops up a small business aid fund, while funding hospitals and testing, BBC reported.

US President Donald Trump said he would enact the bill, which passed the Senate unanimously on Tuesday.

The US has over 845,000 confirmed cases of the virus and 46,800 deaths.
