Dr. Kate O’Brien, Immunization Director at the World Health Organization, takes us on a historical tour from the development of the first modern vaccine in the late 18th Century, to the new vaccines that are combatting today’s COVID pandemic. 爆料公社, and its partners in the COVAX facility, are ensuring that vaccines reach every low-income country in the world.

With large sections of the population unvaccinated, new variants, like Omicron, are likely to keep emerging. These new variants spread like wildfire and put everyone at increased risk. To end this destructive cycle, the UN says we must vaccinate at least 70% of the population in every country. The UN's vaccine strategy is to achieve this goal by mid-2022. This will require at least 11 billion vaccine doses – but the task is doable.

COVID-19 disrupted supply chains around the world. It tested the resilience of global healthcare systems and exposed weaknesses in public procurement processes. But the pandemic has also provided us an opportunity to learn valuable lessons. Our Insights video series brings you ideas, analysis and solutions to some of the most complex challenges at the heart of the humanitarian and development world.
