Dec. 10, 2025: Colorado airline contracting with ICE, Hep B & public health influencing, indigenous faith
Description
An airline in Colorado wants to expand at DIA, but its proposal is hitting headwinds over its contract with ICE to transport detainees. Then, Colorado health leaders are pushing back after a federal vaccine panel voted to roll back long-standing guidance for a newborn immunization. Can public health experts catch on as social media influencers? And, a recent Pew research study on religion left out Native American faith. We meet a spiritual leader from a tribe in Southern Colorado.
