After months of waiting, American Samoa family reunited

After nearly a year of shutting down flights due to the pandemic, American Samoa is beginning to repatriate its residents under a strict quarantine protocol. NewsHour Weekend’s Laura Fong spoke to one of the hundreds of formerly stranded residents. He was separated from his wife and six kids for eight months but was finally able to get on the second repatriation flight last month.
