Experta en el Frente del Ébola: Pandemias, Vacunas, Farmacéuticas y los Agujeros del Sistema

Today I'm sitting down with Miriam Alía, one of my heroes. She's the vaccination and epidemic response coordinator for Doctors Without Borders. She's fought on the front lines of ten Ebola outbreaks in Africa and knows firsthand what happens when an epidemic is mixed with fear, war, and misinformation. We're talking about the new outbreak in Congo, the rise of the anti-vaccine movement, the mistakes made regarding COVID, and the role of pharmaceutical companies.
