Ukrainians in San Diego watched with the rest of the nation as President Joe Biden delivered a rousing State of the Union addressing the Russian invasion. Next, we dig in to the new “test to treat” plan for COVID-19, using Pfizer antiviral pills and the new National COVID-19 Preparedness plan with Dr. Eric Topol. Later, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors passed an initiative Tuesday to provide doulas, or birth attendants, to Black moms-to-be and other women of color. And, California could become the first state in the country to expand health coverage to all low-income immigrants in the state. Then, for the first time in 27 years, Major League Baseball is canceling games due to a labor dispute. Finally, the San Diego Music Awards recently released its list of nominees for this year. And topping that list with a record five nominations including song of the year is San Diego Jazz soloist Rebecca Jade. We hear about her musical influences.
