- Trump administration thrust vaccine policy back into the headlines three months before midterm elections, potentially complicating matters for vulnerable Republicans hoping to keep control of Congress.
- President Trump doubled down Monday on his attempt to overhaul vaccine policy (source text cuts off mid-sentence).
