Soon, all Americans will be eligible to get a COVID-19 booster shot. One of our listeners is wondering whether getting her booster means taking one from somebody in a developing country.

• “Why donating COVID-19 booster shots isn’t that easy” from National Geographic 

• “Treasury yields turn flat after disappointing jobs data” from CNBC 

• “Piling Up: How China’s Ban on Importing Waste Has Stalled Global Recycling” from Yale Environment 360
