Virus spike in wastewater suggest COVID surge coming

Researchers at UC San Diego, based on the amount of virus detected in the county’s wastewater, say that a COVID-19 surge this winter is not just a possibility, it’s already here. Plus, San Diego’s Climate Equity Index is meant to guide city decision making so the communities on the front lines of the climate crisis get help first. But the tool is far from perfect. Also, San Diego could build a new trolley line to the airport in the next decade, according to a new feasibility study released by the Metropolitan Transit System. And still shopping for that perfect gift? San Diego is home to some great independent bookstores and they have great book recommendations for those last-minute gifts. Finally, in this excerpt from the Cinema Junkie podcast, host Beth Accomando and guest Nora Fiore look at the Long Suffering Wife archetype of film noir.
