Weekend Roundup 9/17

On the CBS News Weekend Roundup with host Allison Keyes; the FDA votes unanimously to recommend Pfizer booster shots for Americans over 65 years old and at "high risk of severe COVID-19." But, the debate over boosters has caused confusion for many as health officials face off over whether a third shot is needed. CBS's Dr. David Agus breaks it all down for Allison. Meanwhile, hospitals struggle to handle an influx of COVID-19 patients. CBS's Manuel Bojorquez reports from Florida. On Capitol Hill, the Senate hears from top Olympic gymnasts including Simone Biles, who testifies over the FBI's handling of the sex abuse case of former USA Gymnastics Director Larry Nassar. CBS's Jeff Pegues has the latest, including calls for those involved in the botched probe to be prosecuted. CBS's Peter King reports on SpaceX's Inspiration4 mission, which is comprised entirely of civilians and is currently orbiting the Earth. A new documentary explores the life of boxing legend Muhammad Ali. CBS's Steve Futterman has the details on the PBS documentary. In this week's Kaleidoscope, we look at sexual violence laws around the world. The international human rights group Equality Now recently released a report looking at loopholes in rape laws in 35 countries in North, South, and Central America and the Caribbean. Allison speaks with lead study author Barbara Jimenez-Santiago, who says the testimony of world-class Olympic gymnasts on Capitol Hill about their abuse illustrates how authorities can fail women. Finally, Allison remembers George Wein, who died this week at the age of 95. He helped found the Newport Jazz and Folk Festivals -- the template to gatherings everywhere from Woodstock to the South of France.
