U.S. to stop giving out free COVID tests
The U.S. government said it will stop accepting orders for free at-home COVID-19 tests on Friday. This comes after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated its guidance on masking, testing and isolation times. Dr. William Schaffner, a professor of infectious diseases at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, joins CBS News with a look at the updates.
