Description
Before the pandemic, anti-vaxxers were mostly fringe groups, falsely
claiming that shots could cause autism in children. Now, Covid culture
wars and red state laws to restrict vaccine mandates are reinvigorating
the anti-vaccine movement nationwide — and that's a problem for ending
the pandemic. POLITICO's Lauren Gardner reports. Plus, Biden nominates
nine ambassadors. And progressive tech critic Lina Kahn is set to chair
the FTC.
Lauren Gardner is an FDA reporter for POLITICO.
Jeremy Siegel is a host for POLITICO Dispatch.
Irene Noguchi is the executive producer of POLITICO audio.
Jenny Ament is the senior producer of POLITICO audio.
Raghu Manavalan is a senior editor for POLITICO audio.
