  • Summary

  • We are a podcast about global health and human rights. And right now, we are asking the tough questions about what a world with #COVID-19 looks like. Rapid, mass global #vaccination programs are needed - something never achieved in #globalpublichealth before. But who will be left behind? #Pandemics have upended #globalsecurity priorities and turned our lives upside down. What does this mean for #humanrights? What are the implications for epidemics, like, #HIV, #TB and #Malaria, that we have not yet eliminated, Produced by NewsDoc Media and Hunuvat Global, we explore these and other pressing questions, with scientists and advocates from around the world making the tough decisions right now.
