Weekend Roundup 12/03

The Covid-19 Omicron variant is now in the US and President Biden is outlining plans for the nation to slow the spread. But many parents still worry about how to keep their children safe. Pediatric infectious disease specialist Dr. Ruth Kanthula tells Allison she has advice for protecting our families. This week, the U.S Supreme Court began hearing arguments over a Mississippi law outlawing abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy. This is the most significant challenge to Roe v. Wade in decades. CBS' Jan Crawford has the latest. In this week’s Kaleidoscope, we sit down with Rev. Dr. Cassandra Gould, the Executive Director of Missouri Faith Voices, to discuss the disproportionate toll student loan debt has on Black students. She says this problem is turning the American Dream into the American Nightmare. Nearly 40-million people around the world live with HIV. Last year, 680 thousand died from AIDS-related illnesses. But for World Aids Day this week, CBS' Ian Lee tells us there's a new treatment to fight the disease. Finally, the late Josephine Baker, the legendary civil rights activist, singer and dancer, is posthumously receiving France’s highest honor. CBS’ Elaine Cobbe has more. Host Allison Keyes will have these stories and more on the CBS News “Weekend Roundup.”
