There 3 points:

 a) "guix install glibc-utf8-locales" as root because of the daemon
and restart it. (depending on your system init, an extra config should
be required)
 b) "guix install glibc-utf8-locales" as regular user

This should fix the locales issues.

Note that depending on your locale, glibc-utf8-locles should not
provide it. (The term utf8 could be misleading). But en_US is provided
by it.

 c) Try:
      guix install nss-certs --fallback


Hope that helps,
simon
