Why aren't elderly people in China getting vaccinated? To talk all things vaccine from the early days of the PRC to Covid-19, this episode's guest is Cambridge University associate professor in global studies of science, technology and medicine Mary Brazelton (@brazelton_hps). She is also the author of the 2019 book Mass Vaccination: Citizens' Bodies and State Power in Modern China.

Co-hosting is Henry Li (@AliusHenricus), policy lead at the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change.

We discuss

  • Unit 731 and the history of biological warfare in China
  • What China learned from SARS
  • The role of Traditional Chinese Medicine in modern health
