About this episode
The FDA has fully approved Pfizer and BioNTech’s Covid-19 vaccine. Director of the National Institutes of Health Dr. Francis Collins explains what this approval might mean for vaccine hesitancy across the country. He also answers questions about vaccine safety for children, as young people prepare to return to school amid an uptick in cases of the Delta variant. Beloved game show Jeopardy! is host-less as the show still searches for Alex Trebek’s successor. Variety’s business editor Cynthia Littleton discusses the money at stake and the show’s long run. Plus, cryptocurrencies are back on the rise, Tropical Storm Henri took out power for thousands along the east coast, and Governor Cuomo has reached his last day on the job.
