Vaccine Politics Around the World

The United States has vaccinated approximately  3% of its total population, while the UK is nearing a solid 5 percent vaccination rate. In Israel, which has been recognized as a vaccine success story, almost 24% of peoplehave already received at least one dose of a COVID vaccine.  But while many countries are able to glimpse the outlines of a post-COVID world, there is a huge group of people who are being left out entirely. Refugees, as well as displaced, undocumented, and stateless people around the world, remain unavailable for vaccinations.

In this episode, I look at several case studies where powerless populations are being left with no vaccination or support.
