From masking to vaccinations, lawmakers in Congress disagree on how best to protect Americans from COVID-19.
As students are back to school and many Americans are back at the office, COVID-19 cases are on the rise again. But even after we've lived with this virus for three and a half years, the politics of COVID are still divisive.
Republican Sen. JD Vance says the country shouldn't go back to mask mandates, and he's pushing a bill to ban the reimposition of mask requirements on planes, public transit and schools. "I'm wondering whether there are alternative vaccines that can be developed that would be more durable, because you want a vaccine that's both effective and our current vaccines are, but that's also durable so you don't have to keep getting boosters," said Kaine.
