Newark schools temporarily return to virtual learning to avoid post-holiday COVID spike

Out of nearly 100,000 public schools in the United States, more than 90 percent are back to in-person classes. But concerns over the spread of COVID has led some districts to close for the first two weeks of this new year, and move to virtual learning. Judy Woodruff takes a look at what's behind those decisions with chief Washington correspondent, Geoff Bennett.
