Journey Of A Vaccine

It has been more than two years since the first COVID-19 vaccine was released. Millions have been vaccinated and boosted and many countries are now able to live with COVID-19. But as the experts say, no one is safe until everyone is safe…

Living in mountainous regions, remote islands and heavily forested areas, some rural communities are hours away from the nearest medical facility and have no easy access to healthcare, never mind temperature-sensitive vaccines. We follow intrepid health workers in India, the Philippines and East Malaysia as they navigate mountain trails, choppy seas and muddy dirt roads to deliver lifesaving vaccines and medical services in some of the remotest places in Asia. Hear their eye-opening accounts of the unique geographical challenges they face and how those difficulties are overcome with passion and ingenuity.
