It came as Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, his lone remaining rival in the race for the Democratic nomination, was holding an online forum with healthcare workers.
“We’re entering into a tough period that, if we do it right, we’ll only have to do it once for six to 10 weeks," he said."But we have to do it. It has to be the whole country.”
