"COVID-19: So Much More that We Can Do to Save Lives Right Now" - Awake at Night

The United Nations of Earth reporting on this issue: ""COVID-19: So Much More that We Can Do to Save Lives Right Now" - Awake at Night"
The topics: "There are people who are dying un-necessarily because they don't have access to the vaccine [...] It's a have and have-not situation." What is a day like in the life of the epidemiologist heading the global response to COVID-19? For the past 21 months, WHO COVID-19 Technical Lead Maria Van Kerkhove has been working around the clock with thousands of scientists to try to keep all of us safe. In this personal and insightful episode, Maria shares her memories of the first moment she became aware of COVID-19 – before most of the world knew it existed – and then she takes us behind the scenes of WHO’s early steps to tackle the crisis.
