A billion children. Millions of lives saved. And you’ve probably never heard the full story—until now.

In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, host Gordon sits down with Dr. Seth Berkley, the mastermind behind Gavi and author of "Fair Doses," to pull back the curtain on the alliance that quietly changed global health forever. From high-stakes decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic to the relentless pursuit of vaccine equity, this episode is packed with the real stories, hard lessons, and bold ideas that rarely make the headlines.
