plaintiff's attorney. >> what the players are hoping for is that the supreme court will reaffirm that the ncaa is subject to the same antitrust laws that apply to every other business in this country. >> reporter: the case is just a small part of a bigger battle. college athletes often on sports scholarships are not eligible to receive financial compensation, but those same rules do not apply to students on a music or arts scholarship who are allowed to accept outside payments for their work. >> what the ncaa is doing is basically taking away our uniqueness and who we are as people. >> reporter: the ncaa makes roughly $1.1 billion in revenue each year. much of it from television rights. and players like michigan's isaiah livers, want their share. hehe spokeke to espnn a about i week. >> i feel like a university or ncaa or conference can make so much money off one name. the guy who's like putting all

the work in to get to that point gets nothing out of it. >> reporter: some changes are coming. last year the ncaa board of governors proposed a plan to allow athletes to profit off their own image. it argues it must maintain a distinction between college and professional sports, something it's hoping to preserve in the supreme court case. but kessler says this case is about fairness. >> i don't think there's a fan out there who doesn't think it would be okay if the coaches made a few million dollars less and these athletes would get things like graduate school scholarships, and everything else that other students can get. >> depending on what the court decides, some say there's a concern that the ruling could be a slippery slope and open the door to future demands that athletes get paid. and that, they say, could have a lot of unforeseen circumstances. it could really hurt some of those smaller schools and women's sports, while the bigger

schools and those big money-making sports like football and men's basketball, those would benefit in terms of recruiting and attracting top talent. another nurksz the news, the pandemic, covid cases rising in states. up 13% in entire u.s. as states relax restrictions and max mandates. meg oliver has the latest. >> reporter: hospitals like the one behind me say they're seeing more and more covid patients ages 18 to 50. that's because as of yesterday, 50% of americans over 65 are fully vaccinated. as more contagious variants continue to spread, younger americans are feeling the brunt of this latest surge. it's been two weeks since louis carleglio checked into a connecticut spho with covid symptoms. the 32-year-old came home tuesday with an oxygen tank and iv marks on his arm, scars from a covid battle that nearly spiralled out of control. how bad did it get? >> it began with a fever that i had for about nine days. and it refused to break.

at one point i was on 40 liters of air with 60% oxygen which unbeknownst to me was eerily close to the max you can get for high flow air. the doctor kind of later on told me that i was basically going to be close to intubation. >> reporter: how did it feel leaving the hospital? >> oh, felt great. it was a beautiful day out today. so i got to breathe in fresh air finally. >> reporter: as cases rise across the state, hospitals are seeing more patients like carleglio according to yale's chief clinical officer, dr. tom balcezak. >> we've seen a 70% reduction in those over the age of 55 being admitted to the hospital, but what that means is we're seeing a lot more 30 and 40-year-olds coming in. just last week we intubated a 21-year-old. that's really unheard of for us. >> reporter: how alarming is that? >> well, it's pretty concerning. i think the message is nobody is completely safe unless you're vaccinated.

>> reporter: just 20% of adults over 18 are fully vaccinated. despite that lack of broad protection, states are relaxing rules on masks and gatherings, giving more contagious variants opportunities to spread, says dr. ashish jah. >> our best estimate right now is probably 50% to 70% of all infections in america are from b.1.1.7., the variant from the uk. the issue is unvnvaccinated peoe getting together and given the variants, it's still risky. i would avoid it. everybody who wants a a vaccine will have had one, and certainly by the time we get into the summer. so my key advice is hold on tight a little bit longer. we're not talking about months. we're talking about a few more weeks. >> reporter: and he's urging his peers not to wait if they're eligible for the vaccine. >> before this happened, i wasn't necessarily rushing to get vaccinated because i always thought, you know, i'm in a group that's 99.8% sure that

they're -- i'm not going to die from it. my lung capacity is not exactly back. getting up and walking around for me is equivalent to going to the gym. i need take it slow. >> reporter: really glad to see him back home. the recent uptick in the number of cases is happening mostly in the midwest and the northeast. dr. jha says it's likely due to the weather. it's still relatively cool here, people are gathering indoors, and that's where the virus spreads more easily. >> meg oliver in hackensack, new jersey, you're watching the "cbs overnight news." dsc. ♪ queuestions in n my head, filling meme with dreaead ♪ ♪ s so many optptions ♪ ♪ w what's the e right razozo♪ so much h back hair,r, shouldld i get lazazer?

>> reporter: met us at museum. >> this is out of the textbooks, sort of thing we've all studied, never seen. >> reporter: first time in about 70 years these pieces are on public display. is there any way to rank this collection? >> this is at the top, the greatest private collection of ancient roman antiquity. >> reporter: belongs to one of the most powerful aristocratic families who over generations spent banking fortune accruing heart. busts of every emperor, sarcophagus and relieves. the ancient greek and roman marbles just a fraction of the 620 owned by the noble family. why was this locked away so

long? >> very complicated, many intentions of family, of the city, many properties, great costs. >> reporter: let's just say it took a while to work out the details. over the years the italian state tried to persuade them to sell or display the works. plans to create a museum repeatedly fell through, said locked away in rome neighborhood until february of last year when we were allowed in. we cannot reveal the exact location. >> beautiful figure. >> reporter: but archeologist, the exhibit curator, let us get a glimpse before the precious marbles went on zplarks still restoring them after sitting here out of sight for decades. >> did you know this collection was waiting to be seen? >> everybody knows this.

>> reporter: because prince had publiced published this catalog in late 1880s. doesn't seem unusual today but in the late 1800s, unusual. >> usual. >> reporter: viewable in 2d. >> every piece has a different story. >> reporter: and serves as a history of restoration techniques. >> this part is not mentioned. all this part. >> reporter: today we'd leave fragments, in the past the style was reconstruct what was missing. >> one of the statues was put together probably in 17th century out of 112 different pieces of at least three different qualities of marble.

>> reporter: sometimes newer additions are more significant. head on this ancient goat was added 1620 by john bernini. acquired pieces through the purchase of villas packed with art and sometimes carried out archeological investigations on their properties. >> first i came here, surprised by the number but i knew the number. >> reporter: why were with you surprised then? >> seeing in book and then in the real world is totally different thing. it was really moving. great experience. >> reporter: it's an experience more can have. marbles are set to travel across europe and likely to the u.s. as this remarkable record of our collective history is finally shared. >> that was seth doan in rome.
