On Friday’s program we took a closer look at who is now eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine - and where to get it - with Julio Ochoa of WUSF and Nicole Darden Creston of WMFE.

We also examined why Governor Ron DeSantis and Publix continue to face questions about decisions on where to distribute the medicine with Sarah Blaskeyof the Miami Herald.

And, we discussed how state lawmakers might address the risk climate change poses to Florida, as the state legislative session gets underway, with Aliki Moncrief, Executive Director, Florida Conservation Voters and State Representative Chip LaMarca (R-Lighthouse Point).
