On Tuesday, the FDA authorized a fourth dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna coronavirus vaccines for everyone 50 and older. Plus, the California Supreme Court welcomed its first Latina justice, Patricia Guerrero, formerly a San Diego appellate judge. Then, a newly available drug called Evusheld would help protect people whose immune systems are unable to fight COVID-19, but not everyone who needs it can access the drug. Then, we hear about a childcare program offered to mothers experiencing homelessness through Father Joe’s Villages. Finally, a preview of "A Twisted Bargain," a new play opening this weekend at the Tenth Avenue Arts Center which was inspired by the infamous Leopold-Loeb murder case.
