Show Notes

Prior to COVID-19, the world had the capacity to produce about 5 billion vaccines a year. In the age of COVID, much greater capacity is needed. The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, or DFC, is a little-known federal agency making big investments to build the global vaccine pipeline. DFC's chief operating officer, David Marchick, talks with Dr. Josh Sharfstein about these efforts and their impact.
