On Feb. 16, the University of Virginia reported 229 new cases of COVID-19 in one day. Those 229 cases were 15% of all the new cases that day in the whole state. This week on Soundboard, we talk about what’s driving that outbreak and what the university is doing about it. And in the second half of the show we sit down with a local organization that’s tackling food justice in Charlottesville and Albemarle.
