Based on our own estimate, from looking at budgetary documents and spending bills that were made before the House and the Senate, we estimate that the government, since the start of the pandemic, has either spent or is planning to spend $541.9 billion, about one-third of which is not directly related to COVID-19. That's what we estimate as the amount of spending undertaken or to be undertaken by the government since the start of the pandemic, so close to $542 billion.
