ICYMI on KPBS Midday Edition: COVID-19 booster rates remain low as new variants emerge. And, with state organic waste requirements looming, San Diego approves contracts with trash haulers. Plus, why is San Diego eighth-best for tacos in a recent ranking?

S2: We haven't even seen the primary series of vaccines used adequately.

S2: As large number shows , that has more immune. Decoy effects escape than the ones that we've seen already , like B5 five , the way we just got through. But it's not as concerning as one that's starting to get rooted here in the U.S. and in many countries in Europe. That one is called BQ .1.1 and you're hearing a lot more of that one because it is the worst one we've seen for immune escape.

S2: Well , after five days. And the only way to do this right is with rapid tests. As the study showed in an additional another paper this week. So this is one of the major flaws at CDC is to advocate a five day isolation with COVID. And then if you're feeling okay , go right back to work. The problem is you'll spread COVID , and that's not going to help us. And now and the people who get infected.

S2: I'm certain that it has because I was at the public hearings where that was sort of part of the debate evolved out of a debate. The city spends $70 million a year on trash at single family homes , and they don't charge those people any money at all. And that number is going to sharply increase because now the city is going to have to instead just picking up trash and the blue recycle bin materials like bottles and cans.

S4: Tacos remind Carlsbad listener Kristin Richert of nighttime in Mexico , where neighbors and passersby gather for a quick meal at brightly illuminated street stands. Zeenat Barakat of Poway simply says that it's the perfect combination of flavors the cilantro , onions , avocado , protein , salsa and condiments all make for a fantastic blend for tacos. Alabaster. Listeners Erin Grady Brown and Roxanne Vasquez swear by the convoy's El Gordo if it's fish tacos.

S2: Nowadays that soft tacos and soft tacos , just in case you don't even know what on earth that is ? A soft taco is now what most people just call a taco. In other words , a taco in a tortilla. The hard taco is going to be the in Spanish , we call them the tacos dorados fry tacos with the either prefabricated shell or made freshly. There is still a huge fan base for hard tacos in Southern California because this is where that style really first came into the United States.

S2: They're really one big , vast metropolitan area with the Juana. And so a lot of the modern day taco scene in San Diego and of course , Chula Vista , San Isidro , it's basically the Tijuana tacos. So you have that avocado salsa , almost like a guacamole , but spicy you have they don't call it Al Pastore So it's , you know , roasted pork on a spit. They call it out of bother. You have again , just a big , huge food scene influenced by Sinaloa.

S2: Well , you know , all my life in my career , I've been teaching European travel , and a huge part of European travel is getting excited about the art. And way back when I was a college student , I was giving a six hour all day talk about European art and how to make it fun and meaningful. And over the last decades , I've written books and made apps and taken tours , all sort of designed to help people understand why we need to understand and appreciate and enjoy art.

S2: Andrew The fact is American tourists all go to the same places , so it's no wonder. Mona Lisa is going to be packed and Michelangelo's David is going to be packed and the Sistine Chapel is going to be packed. And those are great sights , but there's plenty of opportunities to get off the beaten path. And what I like to do is find new artists that I didn't know. I was so excited about FRA Angelico. He's the greatest of the high middle age painters.

S2: I mean , like , for instance , you like Art Nouveau. Well , that's a great thing to know ahead of time. Why not focus on Art Nouveau and make it a theme everywhere you go ? Remember , it's got a different name in different countries. And in Spain it's called modernism. You go to Barcelona and you'd see all the amazing architecture by guys like Gaudi , including the Sagrada Familia. You could go to the Czech Republic and you could enjoy Amazing Art Nouveau by Alphonse Mucha.
