How to vaccinate the world

Just been listening to How to Vaccinate the World SW. Very well balanced overview of everything that's going on with the vaccine research.

I really liked the section on vaccine hesitancy, which was full of information about why this is such a problem. Vaccine side effects show up in the first six weeks so the trials we've had are more than long enough, and that there's been nothing different about this development, compared to other drug developments - everyone should be told about that!

Wow - just listened to The Long View on the anti vaxxers of the 19th century. Really interesting - some parallels but I didn’t know people went to prison for not having their children vaccinated against smallpox ?

Great. It was so good to hear scientists talking facts, without all the media stuff.

Oh, this sounds good SW. I'll listen later today when I have a minute.

Apparently there’s a linked website - I’ll have a google

Thanks, I've just listened to it. Really excellent!
