President-elect Donald Trump held a wide-ranging news conference in which he took questions from reporters for the first time since winning the election.

He said he would preserve access to the polio vaccine but equivocated on other vaccines.

He pledged to look at bringing down the costs of pharmaceuticals and expressed doubts that his daughter-in-law might be Florida’s next senator.

The event was a stark contrast to President Joe Biden, who doesn’t often take questions from reporters.
