KPIX CBS Overnight News July 3, 2017

But im president and theyre not. But last night at an event honoring veterans, the president was focused on highlighting his accomplishments. I am delivering on trade, on the economy, on the supreme court, on the second amendment, on our military, for our veterans. And on our borders, where we are doing record, record stoppage. But his promise to repeal and replace obamacare is proving difficult to fulfill. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell has not been able to get enough support for the bill and constituents are giving members an earful back home. Reporter on friday the president tweeted support for a plan to repeal obamacare and then replace it at a later date. I dont think we are getting anywhere with the bill we have. We are at an impasse. Reporter senator rand paul one of five republican whose refused to vote for the senate bill in its current form. I want repeal to work. You separate it into two bills. On face the nation. Senator meek llike mooe was ask republicans cant agree on a bill now, how will they in the future . Some times easier. When you lump too many things into one piece of legislation you doom its likely hufd success. I fear that might be where we are today. Tonight the president will speak on the phone with leaders of china and japan. Tomorrow, he heads become to washington, d. C. For the fourth of july holiday. He and his wife will be hosting a picnic for military families and say they plan to watch the fireworks from the white house. E paula reid, thank you. Earlier today we spoke with chief washington correspondent, and the moderator of face the nation, john dickerson. A lot of the conversation in washington this week was centered around the president s rhetoric and specifically his tweets. Just this morning he tweeted out a video edited to show him wrestling and punching a cnn logo. I wonder do you think john, there is an actual political consequence as a result of this kind of social media behavior . Well, i think the political consequence is it rallies his supporters and that he is basically from the inauguration, onward been quite consistent with his Campaign Message basically he is going to run a presidencien a different way than, than wm other president s which is basically to stick with the affections of those who supported him, keep those affections tight roiled up, no better way than to do that than in competition with the media. Because a lot of his supporters see the competition not based on whatever the merits of the moment may be, but a fight between somebody who is their champion, fighting for the things they want and press corps trying to get in his way. Back on health care, we know majority leader, Mitch Mcconnell was forced to delay the Health Care Vote because of republican holdouts. How might this play out when congress rreturns . There is more tinkering on what mcconnell has been trying to put together essentially buying off different factions. They are all things the socalled sort of mod the ras want. The more you give to moderates mort you lose conservatives and vice versa. This has been the bedevilment of Health Care Reform for republicans in the house and senate. Then there its the just repeal only plan, which, which, is unlikely to get very much traction. And then there its the mike lee and ted cruz plan which senator lee outlined on the show today. It has the the big problem of the highrisk, pools that it creates, or those obama care plans that it creates. That, that also seem quite politically risky. Certainly, Senate Leadership is not everliy enthusiastic about. Not sure how they get to yes. I think the best possible way would be, Mitch Mcconnell using his considerable tal tents, but he has got a very, very tinily margin there. He can only lose two republican votes. As i say, six have already said they, theyre not for it. All right, john dickerson. Thanks. Millions of americans are already on the move ahead of the fourth of july holiday. Nearly 45 Million People will travel at least 50 miles from home. One reason for the surge in travelers, gas prices. Triple a expects the National Average to be 2. 21 by tuesday.

Many people avoid getting a flu shot because they hate needles. Researchers in atlanta have developed a vaccine patch that lets you avoid the needle. Dr. Jon lapook has the story. As georgia tech engineer watched his three children get flu shots. He asked himself a question. Why do we need a needle that is an inch long, to cross a barrier that is, incredibly thin. So the thought was lets make very small needles. Lets make micro needles that can cross the barrier. Traditional flu vaccine injections require a needle long enough to reach muscle. But at Emory University they tried something new. Delivering vaccine to just inside the skin. Using a small patch covered with microscopic needles that dissolve within minutes. The patch can be self administered. If you zoom in and look at each of the individual microneedles, the height of each of the needles is equal to about the width of a piece of paper. Their study of 100 volunteers found the patch was safe, causing mild itching and redness at application site and it was as good as traditional flu shot in stimulating an immune response measured by a blood test. The researchers still have to prove the vaccine actually protects people from getting the flu. The next step of course is to, study more people, and, and, make sure that, these initial findings are still correct in a larger population. 29yearold daisy barassa participated in the trial. I really foresee this is something that should be like amazon prime. You could get it at your doorstep. Then do it while you are watching tv. If all goes well, he says he hopes the patch will be commercially available in five years. The vaccine holds up without refrigeration up to a year. A huge plus in the developing world.
