WHO: Countries must hold off on COVID-19 boosters to promote vaccine equity - a podcast by PRX

The World Health Organization took a clear stance this week on COVID-19 booster shots: Countries must hold off because the majority of people, globally, have yet to receive their first dose. And since the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, tens of thousands of ancient artifacts and art pieces have been looted and smuggled out of the country. This week, the US agreed to return more than 17,000 artifacts and treasures to Iraq.

The proposed legislation would further criminalize LGBTQ people.
