Summary

As states and cities enforce more restrictions to cope with surging covid-19 cases, drug maker Moderna on Monday joined Pfizer in reporting progress on an effective vaccine. While that news is hopeful, the debate over how to deal with coronavirus is intensifying. . Senator Rand Paul discusses the latest vaccine news and why he's skeptical of both mask mandates and lockdowns. The Kentucky Republican also weighs in on President Trump's election legal battles and the scaling back of U.S. troops from Afghanistan and Iraq. Now with two hopeful COVID-19 vaccines how long will it take before we can go back to a somewhat normal life? Former CDC Director Dr. Tom Frieden weighs in on the Moderna vaccine news. Dr. Frieden explains why the news doesn't eliminate safety protocols including social distancing and wearing face masks. Plus, we speak with reporter Lindy Washburn who participated in the Moderna vaccine trial. Plus, commentary by columnist at the New York Post, Karol Marcowicz. Learn more about your ad choices.
