NYC schools reopen without COVID vaccine mandate for students: "We have to get it right"

As millions of kids head back to school, former FDA commissioner and Pfizer board member Scott Gottlieb said on "Face the Nation" that he believes COVID vaccines for children as young as five could be approved by the end of October.

Today, more than a million New York City students return to school, many without that protection. In what is the nation's largest school district, about 65 percent of the eligible student population, and roughly 75 percent of school staff, are vaccinated. For New York City schools chancellor Meisha Porter, the return to the classroom is a milestone, one she's worked hard for since taking over in March.
